No leaks have come from Flyers camp since Hexy took over (besides MDZ saying Weise signed). We didn't even know Gordon's contract details for hours after the Flyers announced the signing.

How about a Flyers-Blues trade in the offseason

Flyers get: RD Shattenkirk and LW Paajarvi
Blues get: F Schenn, D Streit, (D Alt or D Hagg) and the rights to D Amorosa

i like how eklund just kinda throws puuljarvi's (no idea how to spell) name out there too, because the oilers would definitely trade the person they just picked

It's actually Magnus Paajarvi, who was once selected by the Oilers before being traded to the Blues - the other team mentioned in the rumor.

This rumor isn't remotely plausible for the Blues from a cap standpoint. Shattenkirk + Paajarvi is a little under 5M in cap space. A signed Schenn + Streit is likely over 10M.

Has Eklund been right on a single "rumour" the last couple seasons?

Eklund is a rumour aggregrate, not a trade breaker.

Teams are ALWAYS talking, and those talks can range from final negotiations to "is this player available? no? okay, bye"
Eklund takes what he hears and reports it. Everything and anything.

This site is simply a rumour and news aggregate too, beyond its discussion board.
We put a tag on Eklund rumours so you know its him though, so if you don't want to read Eklund rumours, you won't click on it and read it.
We put the tag on it to deter comments like this, yet everytime an Eklund thread pops up, half the posts are about how people don't like Eklund because his stuff doesn't come true, therefore he must make it up, and all the discussion on the rumour and possible trade gets buried.

We'll take your opinion on the rumour, but we don't really need your opinion on Eklund.
