They feel comfortable and think they will win again." Pretty good read. The chances of a season starting on time seem really slim though. One cool thing is that there might be a chance Kovy chooses to play for Lokomotiv if there is a lockout. That would be such a class act thing to do.

Devilsfan118 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 This doesn't sound terribly optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin226 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Good for Kovy standing up for his players despite already having his money set until he retires Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouse Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 If Kovy played for Lokomotiv, he would rival Elias for my favorite player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devils Pride 26 Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Matter to Kovalchuk and other big contract players more than anyone. With another 25% rollback, Kovy loses $25M. Although I'm sure VBK wouldn't mind that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdgeControl Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 All I want to know from Kovy is HOWs YOUR BACK!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oofrostonoo Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Speaking of Kovalchuk, when are his annual Russian "Rocky" training photos coming out of him in the woods lifting up logs and sh!t? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadDog2020 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Speaking of Kovalchuk, when are his annual Russian "Rocky" training photos coming out of him in the woods lifting up logs and sh!t? Hopefully Kovy is not lifting heavy sh!t this summer. Get that back healed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroGravityFat Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 (edited) Speaking of Kovalchuk, when are his annual Russian "Rocky" training photos coming out of him in the woods lifting up logs and sh!t? ask and you shall receive: he has short hair, therefore cup=ours. also, i like the attempt at the IK17 brand, but i think MB30 is way cooler.

Chuck the Duck Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 It always amazes me how you guys find some of this stuff. Although these pics look like the Drago training camp before he fought Apollo Creed, not Rocky in the woods running through the snow to the top of some non-descript Siberian Hill while escaping 2 KGB agents in a Mercedes with chains on the tires.

I was thinking team Canada vs the soviet army team, early russian plyometric training and the Tretiak goalie drills in the 1970s. nice rust on the olympic bar threads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
