From Neil at IC:

Dear Mr. Heatley,

Oh Dany, or Daniel if that is your real name, why do you continue to mock me?  We had such high hopes from you coming to the Sens in a blockbuster deal once the lockout ended.  Although your skating was just a hair better than Jason Spezza’s, we still cut you some slack since you managed to keep finding the back of the net 50 times each year – that is until this past season.

Although initially seen as a minor bump in the road, you were moved to the second powerplay unit by coach Clouston, and wouldn’t you know it we started winning a few more games?  Only for reality to set in shortly after, when we were officially eliminated from playoff contention.  But to go all Alexei Yashin on us, and refuse to play on our team again?  I didn’t see that one coming.  I think you’ve been hanging out with the Lindros’ too much lately.

If this situation turns out in our favour as the Yashin situation did, well then thank you. We were ever so lucky to fleece then-Isles GM Mike Milbury in that deal, but to think we will be able to get talent equivalent to a first rounder (Spezza) AND Chara for your crybaby attitude – think again.  You have put Bryan Murray in such a situation by making your trade demands public, that he cannot possibly come out on top.

I'm not sure I agree with Neil's assessment of Spezza's skating style but his article/letter seems to sum up the resentment most Sens fans are currently experiencing towards Heatley.
