The irony is that you're speculating as to what you think the legitimacy of Clouts' "sources" are.

THIS IS HOCKEYBUZZ! Most of this is speculation by a bunch of guys who spend an abnormal amount of time studying the game on rumours from throughout the league! Get it through your skull!

But I'm not, he told us

Get that through your THICK skull.

Could $$$ be the deciding factor? Considering Vancouver and Edmonton's cap space, Edmonton could potentially offer more than the Canucks for Schultz and putting into mind that he'll probably have a hard time deciding which team to choose if it isn't already clear to him, I think it could come down to the dough

Take it for what it's worth, but TLinden16 may or may not have a source in Kelowna, and I may or may not be telling the truth right now...

He's a better prospect than Ryan Murray or Oscar Klefbom.

How many times have Clouts sources landed him a trade? None. If Clouts was a rumor blogger he would have his own website.

when the operator of this site has about a 2% accuracy rate, i wouldn't expect the bloggers to be accurate with their rumors either, it's exactly that, a rumor site where people come to read crap and talk crap, it is what it is.

Its an ELC. All teams will be offering the same $$.

I like the nucks but I have to say I would love for you guys to get him. I like the direction the Oilers are going in. Hopefully you guys are a force again soon I have always enjoyed watching you play.

Clouts can be right sometimes. He was right about Oilers taking Mitchell Moroz, just not about when they did; couple rounds earlier.

Oh right I forgot he hasn't even signed one yet... Awkward... It's probably better that way anyway since he hasn't proved himself at the NHL level yet

Cloutier is the troll of trolls when he posts this kind of baseless drivel that lacks any form of credible source.

Everyone who comes to this site expects better, Cloutier.

Let's be honest here. Ted Whoever-the-(frank) from Detroit MIGHT know a little of what's going with the Red Wings, but there's no way in (frank)in' hell that he has ANY IDEA what other team's proposals are and how they've gone, not to mention that he might still have teams to meet and ARE STILL 4 DAYS FROM ANY OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!

If anything, "Ted" might know if Detroit has been told "no", but I highly doubt Schultz and his people mentioned ANYTHING about any other team to them. Why would they?
- As_I_See_It

How is he a troll by writing a blog you are in no way forced to read??? And who the eff expects better on a rumor site??? You want legitimacy then go to TSN or Sportsnet and get info from actual legitimate media sources and stop coming to clouts blogs to female dog about clouts

Ya, we're in desperate need of defensmen, we NEED him
- peddy-93

As much as I know you need him. I think we are a few pieces away from making another deep run. When it comes to a cup run, We deffinatley need him more.

whats this poop about laraque wanting to kick some ass

He's inside her alright...
- SofaKingBored

What happens if Clouts is insde her consumating his marriage and Shultz sign with Edmonton? Does he immediately pull out and write a blog or does he finish first??? Enquiring minds want to know!!!!

i was kidding we have an abundance of good young dmen

Good question. Although im sure that after getting hammered at his own wedding and suffering from ED due to his age and health issues that pulling out will not be an issue

Everyone else, blogger talk, uses real sources and more or less updates everyone on what's going on. Clouts is absurd. I honestly can't believe you listen and follow this guy.

If Daniel was healthy for the first 3 games and Schneider was the starting goalie from the start of the series, there probably would have been at least a game 6

It wasnt only Schultz, believe me.....
- peddy-93

Oh, I believe you. The guy's got a huge hate on for the Canucks and their fans. I'm always civil when I venture onto a TO blog, and usually have some good conversation with most, but he just sees the team I cheer for and gets ignorant...prejudice in its ugliest form

Are you people just now realizing Cloutier isn't an insider?

He's a blogger. He blogs. He gets hits. He's very good at it, because you all read his blogs and then create 10+ pages of comments on each one.

If you dont like what he has to say, how about you just not read his blogs? Cloutier could care less if you like him. As long as his blog gets hits, his work is done.

The bashing and name-calling is un-necessary. Jesus Christ, grow the (frank) up. It's old now. And for the record, any mods that are reading this: your a joke.

I'm sure the blog can wait an additional 3 seconds.

By the way congrats on your up coming marriage!!

Is this the Sam Woo of the West? I can understand the Nucks, but why in the world would he go to Edmonton when they have finished at the bottom of the league for how many consecutive years, even with this young talent. They need a goalie before they can even wish to be considered a contender.

Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC

Very interesting from long-time DET reporter @tkulfan Red Wings officially out of the D Justin Schultz sweepstakes

Shane Jones ‏@realshanejones

It would be ironic if Justin Schultz signed with Oilers. When Ducks drafted him it was using Oiler pick gained through Dustin Penner signing

- Unholy_Forward

really? every other blogger on this site uses real sources accept clouts??? Ek doesnt even use real sources half the time let alone the rest of the bloggers here. I noticed you are real new here so just to let you know the majority of us just come here to bash clouts from time to time and b.s. back and fourth, its not very often i even read all of his blogs. I honestly can't believe you follow him and come here to comment on his blogs. Arent there like 3 leaf bloggers you could be reading??
