HOLD ON. HOLD ON. HOLD ON.
RNH + a first for Schneider?
I thought Cloutier made stupid trade proposal. I think this tops most of his.
I will find McTavish and shoot him if he pulls off such a trade.

I think people are mixing up how Vancouver views their goalie and how I view their goalie.

Because you view Vancouver's goalie from the park across the street from his condo, using binoculars, while wearing a raincoat?

I'm pretty sure that the more credible ones like McKenzie, LeBrun and Dreger(which he's not being biased towards his cousin's team) have sources they trust for that info and probably do talk with some front offices around the NHL. They're already employed by TSN/ESPN and don't have a site to run for hits like Eklund.

McKenzie, LeBrun and even Kypper for sure.

Dreger, about 40% of the time.

But you have to remember these guys are under the gun to have something all the time. do you really think think NHL teams have stuff to leak all the time?

"Hey Gilly, Booby Mac here. what's new?"
"Honestly not much"
"Come on give me something"
"Okay, i talked to Jay feaster today. he's managing okay in Calgary even with the flood."
"Gold Gilly gold!"

Our top story on TSN today, The Flames and Canucks are talking.

yah, we kicked around the idea of doing a story for the Calgary Journal about how often these guys were right about anything and who these sources were.

honestly, spit out 100 vague rumours and you're bound to get a couple right.

I know it's likely that a deal gets done to have NHL players playing in Sochi, but aren't they still negotiating this?

Fans also have to understand that sometimes teams purposely leak things, for various reasons.

We were leaning toward Eric Francis, Bruce Garrioch and the Sun media guys.

for all we know, the Schneider conversation came from the other team.

"Hey Mike, is Schneider available?"
"Yah for your first born, all your picks and your franchise player. "



"Pssst, Dreger, Schneider is on the block."

Hopkins and the seventh selection? Wow, is all I got to say. If the Oilers accept that, the Canucks would be fools to say no.

Gillis said he's listening to offers on Schneider. Wouldn't rule out anything.

Hockey Rumours‏@NHL_Trade1h
Gillis confirms that Schneider and Edler are in play. #Canucks

Gillis on whether Schneider is going anywhere: "I don't know. We'll see. We're listening to proposals. You never say never."

The only credible sources here are mentioning Schneider. Nothing about Edler or Kesler.

I bet Gillis got Schneider's permission to throw his name out there with no intention of trading him just to mind(frank) the teams that are waiting for Luongo to be bought out.

Let's hope so man....lets hope so.


And knowing Gillis, he probably didn't bother asking for permission.
