Peter Tessier: Heatley Joining Jets Soon? A posible PR/tech mistake much like Matt Halischuk last year may show that Dany Heatley is soon to be a Jet

Hope people didn't think Heatley popping up in a Jets website wrap meant they had signed him. As Thrashers alum he's stored in the system.

It's gone now and this happened last year as well. Also that's not where Travis was looking as I understand

Ahhh Jets....

So its come down to "Please let me play the game" players?

Sad...This franchise is turning into what many thought it would be when they returned to the league....

it's not travis.

Chris Lund works for the sens, he handles their website and social media. he obviously has no inside info for who the jets signed, but is fairly knowledgeable on running and handling the websites.

just though i'd add his tweet into the discussion.

All the old Thrashers bios are there.

I still believe the Pittsburgh rumor is more likely to be true. Why would Heatley go to a team without an elite center such as the Jets.

The rumor of him signing a 1yr deal for 1mil with a reasonable assurance of playing time with Crosby or Malkin seems a lot more plausible. Heatley could easily return to 40g form playing on the wing with either of these guys and revive his career.

Pitt? They would be lucky to get him. Did Crosby score 50 in '07?

Sure but have to start giving up Galchenyuk or Gallagher type young players.
Hes not a Plekanec, Prospect, and a pick kind of trade

Yes, but Travis was not looking there. you can look up past teams since inception so that's not news.

Please God, no.

It'll be tough cheering for the Jets this year with that puke on the team.

It's all tied together. It's an archiving error.

No team with a Dan Snyder memorial trophy would sign him.

I couldn't agree more. Kane isn't moving for a 31 year old player who puts up similar points. I don't see chevy excited about a trade like that. I do however believe he will be moved sooner than later...

Yeah, head high clappers and changing on the back check! #50in07

I would try him for a one year deal. Hell we're paying Thorburn over $1m per, why not take a chance on a former all-star and 50 G-note man.

I'd like to see him in winnipeg. He would probably get 2nd line minutes and might be able to score 25 and put up 50 points.... especially on a bargain contract, exactly how Chevy likes them.

Odgers might inject a little toughness too.
