They have to still pay him, but I'd let the prick rot in the minors, send him to the lowest rung pro league they can, make him quit, then they are off the hook. If he won't quit, he's buried for 6 years riding the bus and living in fleabag motels.

Unfortunately, Heatley has a no-movement clause - they can't let him rot in the minors if he doesn't want (and can't be waived either).

He better not hold the Sens hostage - people here remember Yashin and have little patience for divas...

Maybe Regina can correct me or fill in the missing parts of the story. It seems that someone in Edmonton found out where Pronger was storing his furniture after he pulled the pin in Edmonton and burnt it. I heard Pronger crying about how he lost his childhood crib in the fire, while on the Jim Rome show.

Thats all I caught of the interview.

Yeah, but they are not "moving him" per se. he is still in the organization, just did not make the team.

I believe the high priced help would have to clear waivers first for that to happen. They don't want to give him away.

I don't even try to understand that waiver thing but I think thats what would happen.

If they waive him right now NOBODY is picking him up, because they are on the hook for his 10 LARGE, July 1st. I am unsure if that is all it takes to keep him there for next year, as you said, Pro sports contracts nowadays are harder than Chinese math. I really don't think a guy who gets cut in training camp has to clear waivers though

Never heard that but I suppose it's possible. Not sure why he'd have that crib in storage or in Edmonton since he still summers in Dryden where his parents still live.

Waivers all depend on number of years since signing their first contracts and number of games played.

I'm not sure either but I think Heatly has enuff that he could dodge waivers..

Where the HELL is Regina when ya need him????

Don't ask me.........I still sign my name with an "X"

This happened with in weeks of his departure from Edmonton, he still could have been in Mexico. But like I said I didn't get to much of the interview.
