Rumor: Rumor,trades, proposals volume 13 BUZZER HAS SOUNDS PAPERS OVER

[McDNicks17]

If Drew Stafford has been traded, he hasn't been told yet.

I searched the tweet, and it's a Twitter account that claims to be better than all the insiders.

It spells hockey with two "y"s and insider with two "r"s. So yeah, seems pretty shady.

nothing on line

Thanks. Crap twitter account. That post has been removed.

twitter is going goofy with the Stafford rumours

 

[The Nuge]

Why?

They flipped Varlamov into 2 1sts last year and have one of the leagues deepest prospect pools.

Because that's WAY to much for Stafford

 

[McOilbleeder]

Hfoil really needs some kind of screening process for posters. People are never satisfied and anyone worried about Columbus is fooling themselves

Why?

They added a goal scorer for depth basically. For a team who can't score, that's a hell of an addition. Especially considering Gaborik scored 40 last year being centered by Anisimov who he'll be paired with again in CBJ.

But let me guess, because it's CBJ it's automatically a garbage trade?

 

[Asher]

When was the last time a player asked for traded and didn't report to camp?

Souray asked for a trade and was ready to report to the Oilers. Heatley, Pronger, Nash never got to that point. Who else has requested a trade in recent years?

It never gets to that point. You might be right about Souray though, I think he was serious about reporting.

twitter is a strange amusement park

a fake twitter account posted Kovey and a third for MIller, Stafford and a first and some of the posters have gone nuts retweeting

 

[Seachd]

Stafford isn't being traded. Buffalo is done, according to McKenzie.

 

[Tarus]

Of course he was.

Heatley reported to Ottawa shortly before the trade to SJ.

They aren't giving up their extremely significant paychecks just to avoid an awkward situation.

Lots of speculation over a Capitals-Sabres trade of some significance... lots of names being tossed out there, but 0 confirmation so far.

 

[Soundwave]

I wonder if Redden was Boston's plan B or C after the Oilers wouldn't move Whitney.

 

[Jumptheshark]

Stafford isn't being traded. Buffalo is done, according to McKenzie.

the twitter world is buying into a fake tweeter account tweet

Paper shuffle to accommodate trade. Lander technically back to OKC. Can return after midnight tonight

"His ability to move the puck is something we desperately need. I didn't see anywhere where we could replace that." - Tambellini on Whitney

That's because for some reason some people insist on following people who aren't legit sources, and worse, spreading that stuff on.

Fair enough, although I doubt Pronger would have reported. I'll tell ya'll right now, I wouldn't report. I hope Luongo doesn't either.

Seems about right.

 

[Jumptheshark]

No confirmation from what I call a legit source-but a few twitter accounts I follow who usually do not spread rumours are saying Miller and Stafford to washing for Holtby and someone else

The funny part about this is that the NHL requires that he actually get on a plane and goes to Oklahoma City.

At least they did for the 2005 CBA.

 

[Moonlapse Vertigo]

Tambo lurves Whitney.

Translation: I'm not going to do jack **** in the summer either. We're going to stick to the status quo because we've won four straight.

 

[Jumptheshark]

sounds like it is Stafford to washington but there is a catch

It's unlikely those guys trump Bob McKenzie

BUF's only trade today is Jason Pominville to MIN tho we are still waiting for precise return, Larsson, Hackett and ??? picks.

 

[Spawn]

Buffalo GM just said they are done according to sportsnet (at least thats what the main board says)

 

[Joey Moss]

Clearly you're not aware Bob McKenzie has shut that one down..

 

[jmoss45]

What I would give to know what we offered for Bishop.

Jones + 2nd?

Harski + 2nd?

Jones + Potter?
