It was a tragedy that I'm sure everybody would love to be able to take back, especially Dany Heatley. Being so quiet after retirement likely shows it wasn’t his head (look at Mike Commodore for example), but then who knows. “I didn’t listen to them, but one day I literally just said, ‘hey, this could be an alternative to working my shitty summer job.’ Luckily, it worked out.”.
