For a guy who signed a contract who now want out because he does not want to go through a rebuild, or what ever stupid reason. Don't get me wrong, Heatley is a very good if not great winger. But I do not want to an extra 3.5 mil per season for guy that will get us a few more goal than BB will get us. Much rather have the kids do it or go out and get another scorer to fill the void of those extra goals.

43/33 vs 50/50... hmm.. There's a reason Heatley is a top 5 winger in the league and Boyes isn't.
That being said, the Blues don't make this deal because of Eller being traded.
