His contract with his KHL team is 6 million US per year.
I don't think Aquaman is willing to pay for a big contract for Kovy even if it's just a one year deal.

if they can afford Loui at $6M for 6 years I highly doubt they'll hesitate on Kovy for $6M at 1 year.

I'm more interested in the next two offseason and trade deadlines than the season tbh, expansion too. Lots of older, and bigger contracts coming off. Will they be idiots and re-sign miller for 6mil and burrows for 3mil+ or low ball their asses for another year in Van? Also if Sedins come back cheap. Actually trade some of the upcoming ufa's for prospects/picks?
Team should have some more decent prospects/young players by then. Boeser, Horvat, Hutton, Stetcher, Juuolevi, Demko Top 5 pick this year, prob top 5 in 2018 too. Subban, Virtanen, Tryamkin, Baer, Lockwood, Brisebois and Gaudette as some wild cards.

I thought every team in the league has to agree to let Kovy play before he can sign a contract with the NHL.
New Jersey damn sure ain't letting him come back.

No he's right, as per hockey news:
"However, in order to come back to the NHL in two seasons time, Kovalchuk would need to receive the green light from all 30 NHL teams because he voluntarily retired. If he wishes to come back to the league without needing league-wide approval, Kovalchuk would have to wait until 2018-19, when he would be 35."
Another way is for him to sit out an entire year of professional hockey and then be 35 and he doesn't need permission from any teams if he does that.

New Jersey needed to get his contract off the books to sell the team. New owners didn't want the liability especially since it was an uninsured contract; team was sold the following month.

This team's weak sauce power play is costing wins. They had PP chances in the second period but could not put the puck past Lu.
No finish at all!

If the Canucks were on an up and coming team with a need to shore up some offence to perhaps add some depth come playoffs, then I would say a short term deal would be worth the risk. However, given the current situation of the Canucks there's no need for such a signing.
