I got an impression that he was quite unhappy at the end, Murray told the media in April of 2010.

He later played for the Dallas Stars and Toronto Maple Leafs. They were just fun dynamics and when you get close with guys that way, you're able to have that dynamic and then you have fun around it.

He was confused by Heatley's decision to force a trade from Ottawa, saying "I'm surprised because he signed a long-term deal (with Ottawa) and was playing in a market that seemed to embrace him." I think he was a good player before that, no question, says Alfredsson. On July 1, 2014, Spezza was traded to the Dallas Stars (along with Ludwig Karlsson) in exchange for Alex Chiasson, Alex Guptill, Nick Paul and a second-round pick in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft.

However, due to the subsequent NHL lockout, Spezza returned to the AHL in 200405. And then from that point on, we had unbelievable chemistry.

A trade was worked out to send Heatley to the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for Andrew Cogliano, Dustin Penner and Ladislav md on June 30, 2009, but Heatley again surprised the hockey world when he refused to waive the no-trade clause which would have finalized the deal, further angering fans in both Ottawa and Edmonton. [27], After the conclusion of his first season as the Senators captain in 201314, it was revealed by Senators general manager Bryan Murray that Spezza had requested a trade from the Senators. This was unpopular with Atlanta fans, particularly as Snyder's father Graham noted that Heatley owed much to the Thrashers' organization that had particularly been extremely supportive of him during his trial and ordeal.
