Alexei Kovalev is making a comeback of sorts.

The one-time NHL sniper will suit up for the Visp EHC of the Swiss B League, according to Szymon Szemberg of Elite Prospects.

Kovalev, 43, has not played pro hockey in two years. He last appeared in the NHL in 2012-13 with the Florida Panthers, scoring five points in 14 games.

The Russian-born Kovalev had a decorated career that included stops with the Montreal Canadiens, Ottawa Senators, and two stints with both the New York Rangers and Pittsburgh Penguins, scoring 1,029 points in 1,316 games.

Kovalev won the Stanley Cup with the Rangers in 1994.
