No talking with Ottawa Senators’ Alex Kovalev after morning skate today at the Bell Centre. He’ll only speak to the media after tonight’s game vs. the Canadiens. But Kovalev was first on the ice this morning and had his usual fun with the puck before he was joined by his teammates. If practice doesn’t make perfect, it doesn’t hurt.

He’s scoring from there tonight.
but it would look damn good.
When asked if he cared about ever winning another Cup, Kovalev responded, “In Ottawa? Seriously? What would be the point? Now, Montreal…”
I’d bring him back. Evident his heart is still here.
You do realize you’d only get half of it done, right?

So Stubbs, you just accidentally left you camera in a seat and this just happened to get recorded, right?

I could use him to shovel my driveway today.
What’s next, a video of paint drying?
Say what you will about Kovalev, but name another player who is:
a) available for trade
b) would cost almost nothing to acquire
c) would have a bigger impact on this team and this city
then Alex Kovalev.
Granted, I’d take Stamkos if he could be had, but if we remain within the realm of reality, Kovalev represents the best possible solution to fill out our top six for a playoff run.
UFA at season’s end and if acquired at the deadline, could also be coupled with the acquisition of a number 2-4 defenseman (Bieksa?).
Discuss.
Could’ve used the time to heave 6 shovels full of snow!
OOH AAH – HABS ON THE WARPATH!
Damn, that was some boring video! Thank God there was no Coldplay song accompanying it!
And just think, you’ll NEVER get that wasted 50 seconds back.

While it wasnt action packed, i liked the loneliness it showed, its kinda surreal to see the Bell Center empty too.
He was one of the best number 27s the Habs ever saw. He was also one of the worst. I always be a fan of his talent.
They Call Me Shane
The choice of “Best number 27s” is rather limited there.
After the Big M, there’s not much else. Shayne Corson being the most notable forward after them.
But personally I’d put Schneider and Chartraw ahead of AK27. At least they could play defense!!! ;P

Those shots were all pretty much center of the net. Unless he’s practicing 5-hole, he must be worried he’ll miss!
It’s too bad that there isn’t the equivalent of the Harlem Globetrotters in hockey for Kovalev.
I was thinking there would be some crazy Kovalev moves in that clip. I guess he is thinking that low-blocker-off-speed wrist shots might work tonight.
Riveting.
Somebody show it to Carey, low stick side (where else?) He’ll be looking to shoot through Gills pins.
OOH AAH – HABS ON THE WARPATH!
That was intense.
