I think hes upset. I like when Kovys upset. He got benched a few years ago in New Jersey [a day he missed the team bus and was late to the morning skate], and the next game he scored two goals. Hes going to recover quick. Were going to support him because hes part of our team." March 12, 2006 -- Making a furious bid to overcome a bad start and make the playoffs for the first time in team history, the Thrashers won some amazing games down the stretch in the spring of 2006. One of those came at Madison Square Garden -- a venue in which Kovalchuk almost always shines. The Thrashers trailed 2-0 with less than 13 minutes to go in regulation but earned a 3-2 overtime victory thanks to Kovalchuks tying goal with less than five minutes left. The Rangers had scored the games first goal after a defensive lapse by Kovalchuk. About playing on the big stage: "Its New York City. I think everybody likes games here, but my favorite place is still A-T-L. When you play in front of your crowd, there is five times more emotions, and you draw energy from them." April 6, 2006 -- With six games to go in 05-06, the Thrashers were still in the playoff hunt, but their chances were growing more desperate. They trailed at Tampa Bay when Kovalchuk netted his 50th goal with four seconds left in regulation on a bizarre bouncing shot past Sean Burke. (WATCH) The Thrashers lost in a shootout, missing out on a valuable point against their Southeast Division rivals who eventually beat them out for one of the Easts two final playoff spots. The Thrashers missed the playoffs by two points that season, getting eliminated in their second-to-last game of the season. April 12-18, 2007 -- Making his first and only appearance in the playoffs, Kovalchuk scored one goal and one assist and was minus-1 as Atlanta was swept in four games by the New York Rangers, scoring only six goals in the entire series. Jan. 27, 2008 -- Again demonstrating his love of the big stage, Kovalchuk put on a show for his hometown fans at Philips Arena during the All-Star Game -- though not by scoring. The Eastern Conference won 8-7 and Kovalchuk had two golden opportunities to score. Western goalie and fellow Russian Evgeni Nabokov robbed Kovalchuk from close range with a glove save in the second period, after which Kovalchuk fell on his back in mock incredulity. (WATCH) A few minutes later, Nabokov robbed him again on a breakaway and, again playing to the crowd, Kovalchuk threw his stick in feigned disgust. Kovalchuk had 18 family members and friends in the stands, including his sister, who made the trip from Russia. He said the experience was "unbelievable." Feb. 2, 2010 -- Kovalchuk goes minus-1 without a point in 24:52 of ice time in a 2-1 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning at Philips Arena -- his final game as a Thrasher. Thrashers broadcaster Darren Eliot notes that the final image of Kovalchuk playing at home could be the stars swinging his stick in frustration against the boards after time expired.
