Kovalchuk to LA Kings

Update: So I've read this morning that Kovy is back at the bargaining table with the Kings. Turns out that Lombardi might have read Ilya's interest in LA as well as his market value better than previously thought. Do the Kings really want this guy after all? I can appreciate getting the most out of free agency and the fact that it's a huge career decision. But Kovalchuk is obviously trying to get more money out of the Kings or Devils. Could this be a warning sign? His signing with New Jersey was all but a done deal 3 days ago, then he had a decision to announce yesterday; that came and went. Now he's back to talking to the Kings.
 
If nothing else, his strategy is dizzying.
