NHL reviewing modified contract for Ilya Kovlalchuk

Do not jump to conclusions quickly, but multiple sources are reporting that the Devils have submitted a contract to the league, which is expected to finally pass. The Saga is not over as there has been no comment from the NHL, the Devils or Kovalchuk's North America based agent Jay Grossman. It seems that the report that Kovalchuk gave a deadline to the NHL might have been true or it was just a bluff. No terms of the possible new modified contract have been released. One thing is for sure, this Saga has probably been a huge distraction to hockey fans and all like me want to see this come to an end quickly. It was sort of a distraction during my trip to Europe, because at one point I was excited and then the next I was sort of acting oblivious about it. Lets hope this report is the real deal.
