because there are people out there whose lives are so mundane and dull they have nothing better to do than slander others

its sad really, because they dont even realize that they themselves look like the most foolish.

I really do feel bad for the guy. We're all here, chatting on his website, even if we don't agree with the rumors he posts. If people are truly disgusted, nobody's forcing anyone onto his site. I come onto here because I enjoy engaging in hockey talk to survive what is otherwise an mundane work day. Those on TSN radio, Sportsnet, etc. should really be ashamed of themselves. The problem now is that deadline day has morphed into something more important than the games themselves, and each outlet is determined to have the most knowledgeable and connected insiders. Its a pissing contest at the end of the day, and people need to calm down. (frank) this goonsquad poop and get a life.

lets be honest.. no one but the mainstream media typically knows whats going on.. and thats only because the mainstream media doesnt report rumours.. they wait til its fact

but rumours typically dont come true more often then they do.

I am ok with trading for Nash, but not at the expense of Kadri/Colborne/1st/Gardiner/Grabo/Kulemin

They can have Schenn, Komi, Connolly, Lombardi for him

- senstroll

Would you want that crap?
That's almost 16 million dollars of nothing.
It would be Colborne, Kule, Schenn, prospect and a 1st.

schenn kadri komisarek 1st aulie

That has to be more than enough, 4 solid pieces for the rebuild and 1 crappy contract to make the cap work. Huge loss of assests for us but Nash isnt the type of player thats available for trade/signing everyday

- RoyMunson

3 defensemen?
No that isn't happening.

Mine was C.W. Jefferys............ its claim to fame, the only school in the Toronto area where a student was murdered. I guess that would make it infamous as opposed to a claim to fame

yup, absolutely to me.. the only people who really know whats going on is the people who work in the teams front office.. and even then.. only a select few of those

the rest out there is nothing but hearsay and rumour.

Yeah, the irony of bashing Ek on his own website is apparently lost on some people.

I wonder how much web traffic has been generated by people going our of their way to say Eklund is an idiot. At the end of the day, he's still the one with the cash cow and the best job in the world.

Makes you wonder who's really the idiot: Ek or the legions of people who think they're calling him out (incidentally, these are the same people who cause his site to slow down by hitting "Refresh" every 5 seconds on deadline day).

Trading picks we dont have? For cap space we don't have? And a deal that would never happen.

Hey, $5 a day to throw up a blog about a topic you're passionate about. Not too shabby. Doesn't take all that long to do a blog either really.

Having to upgrade your servers because your site traffic is so high they can't handle it? Not the worst problem to have in this world. IncarceratedDouche tried his own site and it was a miserable failure. Ek has more visitors to his site in a day than AsianBob has followers on his twitter. Sure, I follow him, but it astounds me how touchy and aggressive he can get when he's supposedly dissed by media members who don't give a (frank) about who he is.
