I know it's from Ekdung, but what the Diddle? :^^^^:

:^^^^: If this is true Heatley really is quite dumb isn't he?

TSN now saying that Heatley hasn't waived and OTT is stuck with the $4 mil bill.

Get ready for a long, protracted summer of this BS...

Douchebag.

Rooney : do you think there's a time (between the time an offer is accepted and the player is pondering whether to waive) where other teams can not make an offer (sort of like a real estate deal)?

Like an exclusive rights kind of period? Maybe. If the GM of the other team has accepted the deal and is waiting on the player to approve it, you have to assume that he's happy with the deal and isn't going to be looking elsewhere afterward. Nothing official, but I woud assume that's standard practice.

Forget Edmonton pulling the offer, Murray is already on record as saying that HE is pulling the offer at 11:59.

where did you see that murray said that??

Both Bryan and Tim Murray have said for weeks that the price goes up after July 1st. Not only will the other team have to add (likely a draft pick), they will have to take back salary (likely one of the surplus d-men).

And the saga continues....sigh

Heatley probably doesn't realize it but I bet Melnyk having to pay the 4 million will kill the deal.

Kill this deal? This deal is over... Not good enough, now (not that it ever was...)

From Garrioch:

00:06 am, Bruce Garrioch / General, 43 words

Heatley


Didn't waive his "no move" clause.
Senators have to write $4 million cheque.
Deal is in jeopardy, if not dead already.
The craziest, most bizarre thing I have ever seen in my career.
The Oilers have tried everything.
Time for both sides to stop.

One of two things will happen. 1. With the bonus paid, more teams will have an interest. 2. No one is interested, and Murray prepares to deal with the Heatley storm in September.

It's the best deal Murray could have gotten and now it's been jeopardized thanks to Heatley being a complete a**hole.

is there anyway we could clear his cap hit from the general sens cap hit and prevent him from playing for the next 5 years? that would be acceptable punishment for this kind of garbage.

Good old Garioch! Might as well just sensationalize when he doesn't have anything insightful to say.

Anything the NHLPA would allow? I doubt it.

I would love to see them announce NOW that Heatley has not made the team for next year and will be in Binghamton. Cap hit off the books.

Except for that NMC thing.

Im almost ready to say Diddle it. Bench Heatley or play him on the fourth line without any time on the PP.

We'll see how long he lasts before he's willing to be dealt where Murray decides.

From Dan Tencer 630 CHED in Edmonton:

Source: Meeting went OK with the Oilers. It's more about Heatley trying put the screws to Ottawa.

this is fracked1 something bad is gonna come out of this... heatley will not get his way. BM be strong, be strong. like it's been mentioned play him 6 minutes a game and see how he likes it.
seriously what has ottawa really done to deserve this! we pulled that Wang slacker out of his deathboat in atlanta, we pyed him the contract he wanted and "oh no" we cut his ice time whe he slacked on the ice cuz eyesuck just waited by the net to put a few in all season... man i hate him soo much i hope he never plays in the NHL ever again!

is ther any rules in the NHLPA that says you can't frack your past team to dath like that? this is gonna set precedent. all these good natured NMC will not ever happen again cuz this guy thinks he's god... well you listen to me cyclop! you just fracked everyone of your fellow players on this.
