What i am about to tell you is not based on hard facts, as i know them. A source close to the Senators told me a long time ago when Ray Emery was having "issues" that he would end up in the KHL and even which team and when. The team had run out of patience for his drug dealing and used his "late" for practice as the means to an end.
Nothing is ever as it seems..ever think the heatley situation just doesnt add up?? "Diminished" role?? No obvious motives ? All happening without warning?
The same source tells me that Heatley slept with a wealthy "restauranteur's" wife in Ottawa and now has a contract on his life. That would make me want out of town, to the farthest rink from Ottawa and in Another Country...ever wonder why the Edmonton deal never happened??
I am as sceptical to these types of "rumors" as the next guy but I do believe the source, take it as you will.
