Do you remember how you felt when the news broke that Dany Heatley had been traded to the Sharks? Hindsight has probably spoiled things a bit. But it was absolutely thrilling. It was probably the most exciting trade in Sharks history to that point. The Joe Thornton trade was bigger (and always will be) but that trade was made at a time when San Jose was on the fringes of contention. Deserved or not, Thornton had a reputation as a guy who could not get things done. The Sharks were sending away a haul for a star, but one who had yet to prove himself on any meaningful stage.
