Hmm... might have something to do with this (http://www.echl.com/cgi-bin/mpublic.cgi?action=show_news&id=2601).

Quote from that article:
Heinze, 36, is a Westmont Hilltop High School graduate and former trainer-equipment manager of the ECHL Chiefs. He capped his fifth season with the NHL's Tampa Bay Lightning which won the Stanley Cup last month.

I doubt that has anything to do with it, but ya never know.
