The Ottawa Senators and Atlanta Thrashers are set to announce a blockbuster trade involving Marian Hossa & a top 4 defenseman for Dany Heatley and a first round draft pick next year. The core of the deal is confirmed however the defenseman and draft pick are still unconfirmed.
Earlier today Ottawa re-signed Hossa to a three year $18m deal. Heatley is currently a restricted free agent.
More information as it comes...
Update
It appears the defenseman heading out of Ottawa is Greg DeVries. DeVries was making too much for Ottawa and Atlanta picks up a very solid veteran. This is starting to look like a pretty good trade for both teams.
Heatley has signed a three year $13.5m deal.
There is no draft pick involved in the trade.
