Dany, Pleks vs Saks, and Laziness

The dog days of summer are where most hockey bloggers dig through their extensive resources to come up with something deep or introspective... and completely irrelevant. I'm sure we're all concerned as to why Gorges Laraque wasn't at Lapierre's golf tournament (ignoring the racial subtext maybe he didn't feel like chumming around with skinny white guys he has nothing in common with and instead was more focused on his own charities) or that Patrice Brisebois is racing in a NASCAR-esque race, I'd rather be posting something directly about the team with my failed attempts at being witty or not be posting at all.


So on the note of talking about my team, how about..er... Dany Heatley. Why is everyone so agitated at this dude? I mean, he said he wanted a trade; he has every right to do that. Sure he pulled a dick move saying "I don't want to go to edmonton", but really, it doesn't change the fact there's a 50-goal scorer on the market who has tons of proven experience at lighting up the World Championships.

Here's something to think about. Saku Koivu is playing for 3.25 million dollars. Thomas Plekanec is playing for 2.75 million dollars. Anyone else think the habs desperately need that $500 000? Or rather, Saku's 54 points in 65 games vs Plekanec's 39 points in 80 games?
