This. You can't just say "I know a guy" and expect anyone with half a brain to take it seriously. No one with half a brain takes the trash spewed out of Ecklund's mouth seriously and he has a website; why would some random commenter have more credibility?

It also depends on how you met him, whether he's at dinner, in the bathroom, etc.

Rich Chere asked Lou about more free agent signings and trades:

“It’s a possibility,” he said. ““We certainly would like to do one or two more things. Nothing has happened, but we are looking into a couple of things.”

It will probably be slow from here on out, no reason for any team to be in a hurry. We'll probably get some mid-august trade or something.

Iggysbff is one of the crankiest posters on the Flames board. Flames fans were ecstatic when we brought him back from Montreal & had no problem with him during his time here. Tanguay was the cranky piece of crap when Iggy got traded. Cammi was actually a great influence on the young kids we have now & that was why Flames tried to resign him here. Problem was term. Rumour was Flames offered him more money than you guys but would not go more than 2-3 year term. We also have Gaudreau & Byron who are smaller skilled forwards that we hope to replace his goals. The problem at the TDL was he got friggin injured late December & had a slight concussion. He did jack bugger all the games leading up to the TDL because of the injury & no one wanted to give Burke more than 3rd rounder for him. Burke said screw that, he had more value keeping him & trying to resign him. If he played the way he did after the TDL we would of gotten a 1st rounder in a heart beat. Anaheim screwed up & should of sweetened the pot for him because he does score goals against LA for some reason. Iggysbff has never liked Cammi but I think many can say the same things about other players Iggysbff likes too, the street goes both ways. Many Flames fans are not happy we lost him for nothing, just bad circumstances.

Weird how Cammi was the only Flames player I poop on....I like some of their others. Even said very good things about some of them that I've met and had dealings with....Stajan, Gio, GlenX, Hudler - great guys. Cammi is a douche.

Maybe you missed my question since you said flames management weren't thrilled with him along those lines

So what was their low ball offer?

Again that part is rumour.

Some said 5 mill per for 2 years. Others said 4 mill for 3. Burke admitted he over valued the market for Cammi.

He spoke publicly against the Habs while on the team wich is why he was traded.

I agree, you stand by your real venomous convictions for Cammi, most of us never agreed with you, but who knows, maybe he butt in line in front of you at one of the Stampede functions. Your 1 experience of him being a douche to you could in fact be legit but the character attack you do on him all the time loses some of the message. Cammi was a pretty positive influence last year, where Tanguay was a complete (frank)tard after Iggy got traded. & you do take pot shots at Flames players like any typical Oiler fan would on our board.

Someone has to bring the interest to NJ if not Cam Jannsen. Our Cam factor doubled.

We have to come up with something better than "Cammi". (The nickname not the player)

Lol. Yeah...I'll take what I know first hand, together with what other people I know have said along with the media rumours and make my judgement. You want to think otherwise? Knock yourself out...

yeah, but rumors aren't facts and you can't prove what you've heard first hand. This is how basic logic works.

Trust me, I'm a doctor and I'm diagnosing you as an idiot.

That's easy to say because I know someone who knows some who works in the finance department who heard from the gm that they are tired of crosby and his antics so want to trade him, others havery said the same so it must be true

It's fullproof
