Thrashers coach John Anderson is "95%" sure that Ilya Kovalchuk will return to their lineup on Thursday.

Kovalchuk has been sidelined since October 24th due to a broken foot. However, Kovalchuk skated on Monday and was able to fully participate in Atlanta's practice on Tuesday. "We'll see how it feels [Wednesday] and take it from there," Kovalchuk said. "If it's sore, I'll take it easy. If it's going to be good, I'll skate with the team again." Stay tuned.
