PublicationsSteve Simmons claims Stamkos' rights could be dealt in a matter of days. Of course the window is closing on those rights having any value since the grace period for negotiating with UFAs opens in a matter of days as well...

What makes a rumour fake? Lots of legit rumours never pan out because a deal is not done until it's done. Doesn't make it fake. Someone once did a little stat study on Eckland and his hitting average was pretty pathetic. As far as I know this guy was never subjected to this kind of scrutiny.
Can you list the "fake" rumours he has started?
The point is it's not a reputable source of information.
He's not Eklund, that's all I'm saying. And it gives us something to talk about.

Source says the Blackhawks have signed North Dakota F Nick Schmaltz. No contract details yet.

Huh wonder what his rights are worth?

I think this guy isn't taken seriously because of the amount of rumours he churns out usually would have him as more connected as all the TSN staff put together. The reason he's followed by those guys I'd because he's probably used for comedic relief. It's pretty outlandish the stuff he comes up with at times. But a broken clock is right twice a day.wprager wrote:Ev wrote:Why bother relaying a fake rumour account

Probably a 3rd or 4th round pick.

Here' let me show you how it's done:
Senators get heck of a player in Alex Chiasson, always thought he was undervalued; slow foot speed but makes up for it with vision, effort

If that doesn't convince you, nothing will.

As I told you one Twitter, Chiasson was a good prospect.

fyp
The guy is a joke and has been documented as a fake. Look at any of the rumours he posts. The only time he gets one right is when he's the second or third person to announce something.

I think he's actually worse. That or he's a human stupidity test. Believe his rumours and you fail.

Time for the "Off Season Rumours" to go into overdrive.

Well, we're almost at the draft, and then with the expansion draft next off-season, teams have lots of reasons to make some deals!!!

Let's hope the Senators are in on several, if not all, deals.

According to BG, Sens not looking to move up in the draft, not looking for a top-6 (has that ever happened before?), looking to add a D.

Well if they are looking for a Dman there very well could be a good one fall down to them. I do wish we could get a forward, especially if someone special drops down to us.
I really wish I could watch the draft. What time does it start at? I'm gonna be in NYC, I've got 5$ a day roaming so technically I should stay in touch with what happens. Guess Twitter is my best bet? Does anyone have an account that usually posts any and every move and trades? TSN I guess?

I really think the name that isn't out there that has a good chance of moving is Dubinsky
