Anyone wake up this morning, take a glance at the Amazon.com best-sellers list and remark at how well all of Michael Jackson's stuff is selling right now? Now has anyone else gone over to the DVD section and noticed that Macaulay Culkin's Home Alone series isn't selling as hot as should be right now?
While everyone is busy telling any camera they can find at how devastated they are because they grew up with Jackson's music, I'm ready for Culkin to come forward and say, "Hey, I grew up with Jackson."
Maybe you were left with the same sense of disappoint when you awoke this morning to read Allen Panzeri's piece that details that not one team has put in a formal offer for Dany Heatley's services. Obviously, there's still a lot of time on the clock before tonight's Draft. However, after reading Bruce Garrioch's blog piece, I've made mental preparations to cope with the disappointment if management can't net a package with a respectable return.
1) Like Bruce Garrioch mentioned in his blog, just do what the Tampa Bay Lightning did with Tortorella and Lecavalier. That worked out great. Didn't it? It'd certainly bring more merit to those comparisons drawn between the two franchises.
2) If Bryan Murray ponies up the $4M front-loaded portion of his contract on July 1st, that'd only increase Heatley's trade value for the rest of the year, right?
3) It's alright, that 5th overall pick wouldn't look good in a Senators uniform anyways. No one does. They're that ugly.
4) Instead of playing on the West Coast, we'll now have a chance to boo Heatley more than once a year.
5) The fact that no one in the League is willing to pony up for the third most productive player in the last three years isn't a reflection that he's the shittiest 50 goal scorer out there, it's a reflection of how highly the Sens organization thinks of him.
