The Waiting Game

Well here we are, very VERY early on a Thursday morning - a couple of days before training camp. And lo and behold, we have another Dany Heatley saga unfolding right before our eyes.

Around 10 or 11 last night (i.e. a few hours ago), my Twitter burst into a hive of activity not seen since the first arbitrary trading deadline came...and went. The buzz seems to be around two separate things.

1. An article from Mr Garrioch of the Sun, stating "2 league executives" had informed him that the Kings, Sharks and the Sens had been talking 3-way trade. The payoff for Ottawa apparently includes Jarrett Stoll and Alex Frolov. Link is here >>> http://tiny.cc/fIeZN

2. A number of people on Twitter have been posting that the deal for Heatley has already been reached and will be announced in the morning. I cannot determine where this one started but some posts suggest the Rangers are the team and others say the Rangers can be ruled out.

Whatever happens, it's going to be an interesting morning. Let's just see if this time, the hype is worth it.
