In the opening shot of what will likely be a year-long pile-on, James Gordon pans Dany Heatley's regular season debut with the Sharks. Now that the games have started, you can expect plenty more of these from the Ottawa media.
While this is no doubt deserved given how much of a d-bag what Heatley was (is), sportswriters would do well to remember that he plays for a top-notch team that could challenge for the cup if they ever get their shit together in the playoffs. As Sens fans learned in 2007, teams can only lay an egg for so long before they stumble on gold.
Take your cheapshots now and take them often. That these are the highlights of what is looking like yet another dismal season wouldn't surprise me in the least.
In the meantime, maybe we should be asking ourselves why nobody wants to fucking play here in the first place.
