Heatley injury update?

[bluejays]

Last I\'ve heard.....
News: Heatley (shoulder) could be back in action much sooner than the original 4-6 week estimate reports the Ottawa Sun.
Impact: He\'s already back skating with the club and he accompanied his teammates on their current road trip. Heatley will not be playing in the All-Star Game and he won\'t be rushed back into Ottawa\'s starting lineup. All indications are that he\'ll be out of action for another couple of weeks at most. (RotoWire - Mon. Jan 21, 2008)

Anyone heard anything? Jan13-4 weeks put him at mid Feb, but if he is ahead of schedule Feb7th?

Last week, Matt Romig said that word was he was recovering fast and would only be 2 more weeks -10 days or so now

I can\'t see Ottawa wanting to rush Heatley back into the lineup. He will come back early, he seems to HEAL faster then most. Maybe a few games less then expected. Nothing too crazy.

Sportsnet is reporting today that Heatley is now taking contact drills again...I think he\'ll be back a lot sooner then expected.

Fan-friggin-tastic news. Thanks Trigger!

Feb 1 Heatley (shoulder) could be back in Ottawa\'s lineup by February 12 reports the Ottawa Citizen.

Recommendation: He\'s been skating with the team during practice the past couple of weeks and is making excellent progress in his recovery. We\'ll keep you posted.

Wow, great read in your crystal ball bluejays, he supposed to be back tomorrow, the 7th, against the Panthers... the Sens DESPERATELY need him

I am so glad that I didn\'t accept an offer I had earlier on to trade Heatley. The guy should hopefully put me over the top as long as he doesn\'t get reinjured.

i\'m worried that he\'s coming back too early to help the sens stay in 1st.
