Heatly and Lecavalier finding new homes this weekend

Draft Day: Many sources are in agreement that Heatly and Lecavalier will be moved at the entry draft this weekend. The major players for Lecavalier are rumored to be San Jose, Ottawa, NY Rangers, Calgary, Vancouver, LA and Minnesota. It is really dependent on who the Islanders take #1 overall and if the Lightning get Hedman or Tavares that determines if the Lightning need a forward or a defenseman. Rumors also say that the $4 million bonus Heatly gets on July 1 is playing a major role in trading him. Apparently if Ottawa can't trade him before his bonus kicks in then they might not trade him at all.

Jmess: I strongly believe that we will see Heatly and Lecavalier moved this weekend, however if I had to say which one of those guys I feel is more likely to be traded it would have to be Lecavalier. I don't believe however that if Heatly isn't traded by July 1 he won't be traded at all I can't see Ottawa keeping a disgruntled player (i.e. Emery).
