KOVALEV LEAVES MONTREAL AND JOINS OTTAWA


ALEX KOVALEV UPDATE:

Today in Ottawa, Senators GM Brian Murray announced that he has signed Alex Kovalev to a 2 year $10 million contract. The Kovalev signing comes 1 day after the Habs fans were rallying outside of the Bell Center to keep Kovalev in Montreal."We hadn't agreed on the amount, but another player was willing to come and join our team," Canadiens GM Bob Gainey said. "So the dollars that we had allotted there for a particular position were grabbed up by another player." The Kovalev signing comes at a time when Sens GM Brian Murray was struggling to trade Dany Heatley. So now with Kovalev leaving Montreal who will be the HABS Captain? Scott Comez Perhaps.
