I'm just pulling some of EKs sources, thought i could spice it up a bit. Seems to be a little stale with everyone saying the same thing.

You know EK is the original source to BOB McKenzie,bulletproof because nobody believes it.

I find the whole notion of people having sources on this so franking laughable.

Is Vesey casually telling the pizza delivery boy that he's not signing with Toronto, and the pizza boy then phones his cousin who knows an NHL blogger?

FFS, he's going to evaluate several offers over the next few days. He and his agent and maybe his dad are going to hammer out a decision.

There won't be any time where any one of those three guys discusses the progress of these talks with a stranger or anyone else.

Yeah, I know, I'm pointing out the obvious on Hockeybuzz.

Kill me now.

Weird.

My Sources told me that they were just going to suspend a kid off the Russian Paralympics hockey team instead.

Gotta love Devil fans who believe they are in better shape than all the other teams without any proof...

Realistically I think he goes to Sabres

- Danformo


Nobody has any proof. It's all conjecture and guesswork...

But there are reasons a Devil Fan can believe they are in this race.

First, Vesey did decide to put us on the list, so we got an invite to the party.

Secondly, the Devils brought Kyle Palmeri to meet Vesey. Kyle was going nowhere in Ducksville and hit it as a 30 goal scorer on the Devils because they gave him ice time. They've played lots of guys up in the lineup like Devante Pelley-Smith and Lee
Stempniak who all saw major production bumps by given larger roles.

Third, while the draft guys aren't as flashy as elsewhere the Devils now have a respectable talent pool and one of the youngest teams in the NHL.

There are others reasons like local New England connections with ownership and Corey Schnieder. Great access to an airport to get him back home to mama in Boston. A coach who is great with developing players. A good track record on RFA contracts. Tons and tons of cap space. Awesome Dino BBQ next to the arena. etc. PartyPoker.com free game chips... the list goes on and on.

Are any of these enough of reason for him to sign? Probably not. They Devils aren't the most likely landing spot. But its absolutely ridiculous to not think there are reasons why he could sign there.

I completely agree.

I think it makes people feel important....good for them if they need that reassurance

BREAKING: Vesey is a HUGE Pokemon GO player, says final decision will be based on how many Gym locations are around the arena.

There is nothing wrong with discussing what seems to make sense but clearly nobody outside of team Vesey really knows anything.

The reality is if you got an interview you're a possible landing spot. If you didn't you're out. Maybe the kid knows where he wants to go all along and is just making sure by talking with everyone that could be a realistic destination. It's all just guesswork.

Vessel not going to Toronto, no way Babcock gets pressured into playing some unproven player top six minutes ahead of those that have earned it.

I got robbed once. The guy pulled out his gun, he cocked it, put it to my forehead and he said, 'Get down,' and I put my hands up, I was like 'whatever.'

Remember a few winter Olympics ago when all of Canada's short track speed skating members had dyed their hair this silver?

A friend who was tight with several Canadian Olympic athletes told me that the reason they were all doing it was because it masked some PED.

So I'm not saying...

I'm just saying...
