Islanders Officially Part with Jan Kovar

In what was increasingly looking like an inevitable parting, the New York Islanders have placed Jan Kovar on unconditional waivers, for purposes of terminating his contract.

The 28-year-old KHL veteran did not report to Bridgeport after the Islanders cut him during camp and assigned him to their AHL team. Earlier this week he was reportedly “figuring out” his next move. That move is...not with the Isles.

#Isles signed Czech center, who played past five seasons in KHL, to a one-year, $2 million deal. Didn’t report to Bridgeport (AHL) after being among last training camp cuts.
