There could be a few things going on here:

1) This is all #fakenews

2) Dorion is playing his cards too confidently (read: incompetently) and is losing some potential "not-god-awful" trade options. If this is the case, and these are still the main players (TB, VGK and DAL) come trade deadline... don't think this will be forgotten.

3) Dorion is getting low-balled like crazy and has no interest in a few draft picks for EK65.

Somehow, I feel as though 1 and 2 are most likely.

Sounds like he going to walk away "a la Tavares" with the Sens getting nothing and plunging into abysmal level of suckiness !

Karlsson has been traded to Channel 4 News Team in the OBHL for future considerations (E5)

I was going to say I feel like out of these three options it's likely #1 or #3

That is definitely a possibility.
I would say about 50/50.

Which is big, if true.

I feel like number 3 is the most likely......I have no doubt that all 3 suitors are trying to get Karlsson without giving up any prime pieces (see sergachev, heiskanen, glass, etc).

good on them for trying........even better on Dorion for not caving....yet

No, Blues aren't in on EK65 at all. Already have Petro & Parayko on the right side long term, other areas need to be upgraded more than they do.

We're still waiting for those imminent trades to happen


and are these reliable sources? well placed sources? nhl front office sources?

We're just trying to get a feel for what level of BS this is, BS1 or BS5

Dallas doesn't need Skinner. What makes you think they want Skinner?

I'm very confused by the rumours regarding the Hurricanes. They're trying to unload Skinner AND Faulk? What are they trying to get in return? Picks? I have no idea what that team is up to.

I just know that Tanner picked them to win the East or something ridiculous like that before last season. Lol Gave me a good laugh. And he also had the Leafs winning the cup.
