Who the heck is that?

King's blogger on HBuzz...

I may have replied to someone on that blog that suggested:

Erik Johnson
Paul Kariya
St.Louis' 1st rounder

for Heatley and Lee

Good luck with that!

He said that 2 months ago. It's not like anything has changed. I should have posted that a while ago.

EDIT, no it was in Mark's blog. I don't give a flying Diddle about some blogger for the Kings on Hockeybuzz. Wow...it's bad enough as it is.

If Murray has any kind of a flair for the dramatic, he'll make the deal now and confirm it in Montreal on Friday.

Yeah his Kopitar thing, is a little far-fetched....

I never said he had a clue... just that he reported it...

Im not buying the LA isnt interested in Heatley BS.

They are interested... Lombardi can't not be interested. He knows LA needs a goal scorer and he's after a goal scorer. If he's not at least looking into Heatley he's doing a piss poor job in LA

Ya, so I really dont think that LA isnt one of the most logical choices. It's BS if anyone says they are not into it. Lombardi bascially said he is looking for Heatley 2 months ago... what changed in LA...? Uhh nothing. They are still at best a bubble team. If Edmonton grabs him or St Louis. LA wont be in the playoff picture for another 2 or 3 years min.

Exactly.

LA's publicly lukewarm interest in Heatley is their meek attempt at "shrewd negotiating".

That's all it is. Hextal can say what he wants, LA and Edmonton will be the 2 teams out bidding each other on Friday.

PS Transformers comes out at midnight tomorrow... That is the biggest day of the year!

Hextall should just go back to being a pitchman for Canada Dry.

Oh there are others who are whispering it. I didn't know why we were talking about some random dude on Hockeybuzz. :^^^^:

Still...as most, I don't think it has legs.

Hextall might be mentally challenged (E3), I'm looking into it.

I bet Lambardo wishes he didnt say that 2 months ago now.

Lombardo's either in, or he's out. Either way, Heatley will be moved and if you believe Murray, the return should be nice.

Dung or get off the pot Lombardi. Now's your time to make your mark. You can be chicken Dung, or you can do it. I would suggest you do it though. Make a name for yourself and stop hording picks that will only work out in 3 years (if you're lucky).

Now...is the time for LA to do this.

i just read this from mark christophers blog on HB


In an interesting twist, today I was told Murray has gone to Heatley's
camp with a potential suitor for Heatley and has basically told
Heater's camp "this is the team we are working with at the moment and
this is where you'll be going if you want out."
