07/26/2010 -

TORONTO (AP) -The National Hockey League Players' Association has filed a grievance over the league's rejection of the contract between Ilya Kovalchuk and the New Jersey Devils.

The league rejected the landmark 17-year, $102 million contract last week, saying the longest deal in league history violated its salary cap.

The union disputed that belief in its grievance Monday. It said that under the collective bargaining agreement, the union and Kovalchuk are entitled to an expedited resolution.

The players association said it would have no further comment until the matter has been resolved by an arbitrator.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
