EJ Hradek and NHL Live Reporting Dany Heatley has requested a trade

It's definitely not a nice way to reward us for a $45 million contract and an alternate captaincy. I can't really hate him, though, because none of us seems to know the exact reasons.

What I hate is how public this is. I think that gives leverage to other teams.

We add to the organizational depth with hopefully a prospect and a pick. Win. We hopefully will get a guy that can step right in with the trade and sign another who can play a huge role too. Win.

Heatley moving really is the best possible thing to happen to the Sens. He is useless in the playoffs, a no show when it counts, a piss poor attitude, and basically a primmadonna.

If the cap was going up and up... I'd agree... but with the cap looking to go down and all the economic uncertainty... this is a bad time for this. I agree though, it will be better in the end, but we won't get full value for Heater. Not at all.

if it hasn't already, its going to shatter it, and this thread won't be done until the dust settles on the trade, then we will have some aftermath reaction comments for about a week, maybe longer.

Will there be a new thread for that, or do we pull a K.Lee and let it run on? :^^^^:

I called the Carolina trade player for player.

BTW this thread is at almost 800 posts. all hockey talk has two threads for some reason. I think Forumotion locked it or something. one is at 990 posts and the other is over 400 so lets see what happens.
