Ilya Kovalchuk used his strength and skill to separate himself from the Red Wings’ defence to feed Anze Kopitar, who back-handed it to give the Kings a lead.

Ehhhh
Wow what a beautiful play be the L.A.kings
i still cant believe some people were saying he wouldnt even crack an nhl lineup because "the games changed" lol
LA looks really really slow
Still dirrrrty
If you think he’s done
Watch this
“Kovalchuk is too old”
Kopitar made Wing's rookie defenceman, Sulak, look like a total idiot with that fake shot.
I forgot about this guy
Easy assist for Kovy, Kopitar did all the work
This is why we paid him the big bucks.
Actually it's because our management has been terrible for 3 years.
Godvalchuk
Video title is stupid. Amazing goal off of average assist
Ilya-Nyet
Forget the assist look at that finish by Kopitar
title's a little dramatic but a good play nonetheless
the kids still got it
I call them big bad old kings
that move was dirty
Look how relaxed he was. Made it look easy.
I haven’t seen this man since the Thrashers were a thing.
Awesome …. Nice enough
My name is ilya but in finland its ilja
How tall is kopitar?? Kovalchuk is 6ft 3, 240lbs and looks small next to him
He is the leading scorer for a team he never played for😂😂😂
Welcome back, Kovy!
kovalchuck maybe in his mid thirtys but he moves like hes 10 years younger
He’s such a stud… hope he gets 60+ points
Guy tries to make a move that he's too slow to pull off, turns away and defers to the best player on the ice – amazing is a stretch
WOW! WHAT A GREAT CONTRACT!
Bernier could’ve saved it with his chest if he stayed on his feet or his shoulder when he went down
I’d rather take a bath
0:14
Kovalchuck:
“AYYYY BIG HUGSSSS- just to let you know, if this doesn’t work out, I’m leaving to go play to where I can win-
BIG HUGSSSSSSSS”
Anyone who can skate well can participate in today's NHL, now that theres no hitting. There'll be women playing soon enough
Kopitar > Seguin
