Breaking: Former NHL star hints at a possible comeback.

Earlier this season it sounded like there was a very real possibility that former NHL star Ilya Kovalchuk would make his return to the National Hockey League, however at the end of the day he choose to re-sign in the Kontinental Hockey League and that was the end of that.

There's been a big change however, and now Kovalchuk has openly threatened his current team, stating that if he is not put back on the ice within the next two days, he's backing his bags and coming back to play in North America, and it's safe to assume that means in the NHL.

It's unclear at this time how his current club, SKA, intends to respond to this demand, but the threat from Kovalchuk does seem very real, and the short term he has given SKA to make a decision may indicate that he already has something in mind if he were to come back to the NHL.

The question now becomes, which team would acquire the former star?
