from Chris Stevenson of the Ottawa Sun,
A Senators team with both Alex Kovalev and Dany Heatley in the lineup could be a reality.
Kovalev said he would be willing to talk to Heatley about his request to be traded and try and get the two-time 50-goal scorer to change his mind.
“He’s a hell of a player. It would definitely be nice for him to stay on the team,” said Kovalev, whose two-year, $10 million contract (all terms US) signed Monday pushed the Senators over the salary cap by about $1.5 million. Keeping both Kovalev and Heatley would necessitate Senators GM Bryan Murray moving some contracts.

...my question is: “If Clouston couldn’t keep one lazy, offense first, selfish superstar happy, what is he going to do with two?”
or maybe the question becomes: “Could Kovalev sweeten a trade deal for Heatley?”
