As we head towards the NHL draft tonight, NY Post beat writer Larry Brooks took to twitter and posted this:
Kovalchuk
Remains unlikely given the state of the team, but told Kovalchuk still has eyes for Rangers.

While the majority of reports from the insiders don’t mention the Rangers and Kovalchuk, Larry Brooks reaffirms what I have been hearing that he still remains interested in the Rangers, even if it may not be reciprocal.
Let’s get through the draft and see where Gorton and the Rangers are with Ilya before we say this one is through.
