McKenzie: Doubtful Maple Leafs will pursue Ilya Kovalchuk (TSN1050)
TSN Hockey insider Bob McKenzie joins Naylor & Landsberg to discuss if the Maple Leafs will pursue former Devils superstar Ilya Kovalchuk, Sidney Crosby’s concussion and the NHL’s concussion protocol.
“I don’t think [the Leafs are interested]. I think the type of deal he’ll be looking for at the age he’s at, and the money he’s looking at… he’s 34 years old right now and he’s going to be 35 a year from now when next season’s over. He’ll be looking for — my guess — a two-year deal or a three-year deal.
