Why did he buy a house in June when he was going to LA and possibly signing there? I don't know..
Because he knew he was gonna get Oprah rich?

Not to be a downer but all I hope is that the yearly cap hit is workable. Still in shock, happy though

It will be really interesting to get some details about what actually happened over the past 2+ weeks, if it actually leaks out. I'm willing to bet that what went down with LA, etc is NOTHING like what the media reported.

Per Jeff Marek of CBC Sports HNiC
So tomorrow for the details? Think Lou is working n sending someone(s) away before announcing how much cap space the Devils will have to free up?
He has until October to free up cap space

Done Deal-ya: Kovalchuk returns
Monday, 07.19.2010 / 11:34 AM / NewsBy Eric Marin
Kovalchuk returns to New Jersey.Big decisions take time, but Ilya Kovalchuk has made up his mind: he’s coming back to the Devils.
Since the free agent signing period began on July 1, almost every day brought new speculation on where the two-time 50-goal scorer might be headed. One of the most coveted unrestricteds in history, Kovalchuk finally ended the suspense Monday, following the Devils' announcement that he’s staying in the Garden State. A 1 p.m. press conference will be held Tuesday at Prudential Center.
A three-time All-Star, Kovalchuk, 27, is the crown jewel on a roster primed to be an offensive juggernaut in 2010-11. As dynamic a scorer as there is in the National Hockey League, he bolsters a lineup that features a pair of 40-goal scorers in Patrik Elias andZach Parise.
Kovalchuk compiled 41 goals, 44 assists last season, his sixth straight campaign with 40-or-more tallies. Acquired via trade from Atlanta on Feb. 4, Kovalchuk collected 10 goals and 17 assists in 27 games after landing in New Jersey.
On the power play, Kovalchuk packs a fearsome shot from the point that will be even more potent with the 6-5 frame of Jason Arnott parked in front of opposing goaltenders. Arnott, the auteur of the Devils’ Stanley Cup-clinching goal in 2000, was re-acquired from Nashville on June 19.
Kovalchuk's signing is the most recent move for the Devils, the clear winners of this year's offseason. The two-time defending Atlantic Division champions signed defensemen Henrik Tallinder and Anton Volchenkov and goaltender Johan Hedberg on July 1. They hired new coach John MacLean on June 17.

not if we're over the 10% limit
he would need to have a deal done for kovy to put his X on the line if the terms put us over that 10%
