Former Devils fitness coach Vladimir Bure told SovSport he thinks the Devils will move Elias to make room for Kovalchuk. Only snag is that Elias has a no-trade clause.

dollar to donut this was a translation / communication issue.
He probably mentioned that a decent salary would have to be moved to fit kovalchuk (breaking news!), reporter added Elias.

Vlad knows the game better than that (or he aught to).

That could be a pretty big snag....if you want to trade a guy...with a no trade clause....unless the player decides he wants to go...and in this case...the subtle slap in the face might be enough to make Elais say "Ok, get me out of here"...
