From the "FYI" department, according to Hokej.cz, former Caps blueliner Jamie Heward has signed with SKA St. Petersburg of the Russian Super League (RSL), which is coached by former Pens/Wings/'Yotes assistant coach Barry Smith.Of note, Heward's new teammates will include a former Leafs teammate (Dmitri Yushkevich) and a former Cap (Andrei Nikolishin).
Update: As Rage points out, this means that the Caps will not receive the conditional pick from Los Angeles (a fifth round pick in 2008) that they would have received had Heward resigned with the Kings.
