Word is he's requested a trade.
We should be all over that. Cost would be high, but it'd be worth it imo.

I'm guessing his list is something like Florida, Tampa, Vegas and maybe a couple other USA teams.
Team USA at the olympics seems to have been 90% guys in the locker-room talking about how all guys on Canadian teams need to play on USA teams, and 10% letting Helly steal games for the gold.

I think the set of national pride came into the room when they won the gold. Tired of being beat by Canada time and again, and they finally win one.
USA hockey is very good, and their program has a chance to eclipse our own if we don't check out back.
The boys probably thought, USA hockey is better and we should keep our talents here.. national pride time of smush.
Brady and now Halle seem to have bought into it.
The very definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing expecting different results.
Generally Disappointed.

Jets are saying they are not getting any good offers from the teams Helle would take a trade to.
Dreger is suggesting Helle will not report for training camp.
I hope they made him sit out until he opens up that list to include the oilers :)
