GM Waddell tells Kovalchuk to expect a trade soon
Ilya Kovalchuk’s days as a member of the Atlanta Thrashers appear to be numbered.
Thrashers general manager Don Waddell met with the star forward on Wednesday and told him to expect a trade to another NHL team over the next few hours or days.
There is no indication that any deal with a specific team is imminent, but the Chicago Blackhawks, Boston Bruins, Philadelphia Flyers, Calgary Flames, New Jersey Devils, Los Angeles Kings and New York Rangers are teams who continue to express interest.
Either stay on the East coast or come to Vancouver.
