Kovalev flew down to Raleigh in his private jet.

 

Kovy quote: "I'd love to be here until the end," Kovalev said. "Looking back as an older guy, the most important thing for me in Pittsburgh was I didn't know what to expect. The Penguins gave me a chance to explore my talent and become a great player. That is the reason I loved it in Pittsburgh.  Now the Penguins are doing that again, giving me another chance."
