Not a big enough role?

Some days I wish Dany Heatley would read blogs about the Senators. The overwhelming response from most of us about him being a selfish baby might actually do some good. However, I could barely get the thought of my head today that Heatley sees his role as diminished in Ottawa.

The only thing that really changed the past year was that Heatley's production tanked. He was on the 2nd power play unit when Clouston came in, but ironically, his production got better under the new coach. So how was Heatley's role diminished?

- Alternate Captain when it should have gone to Mike Fisher
- Penalty Kill time
- In most if not all power play situations

Really? You sure you want to go somewhere else Dany? What you're trying to say is you want to be the ONLY star and team captain. Good luck getting a cup, bozo.

I had the impression that maybe what he was talking about had to do with about halfway through the season, when management started talking about trading Spezza or Heatley.

I think he didn't like being the scapegoat for Ottawa's problems, but it's a responsibility he'll have to accept no matter where he plays.
