To be fair, he didn't specify which trade deadline.

I'm not, but OK.

Was eating lunch, overheard a man (who I admittedly did not recognize) discussing the merits of moving a bottom pairing defenseman. Just something to think about, I have no idea if it means anything

I assume, if he is a member of the Flames staff, that he'd be taking about Joki or Wideman

Probably meaningless, but again, we'll see

No big shock, but clubs say #Habs GM Marc Bergevin sent out note advising D Greg Pateryn is available. He's in lineup tonight vs. #NYR.

Okay "man eating lunch" isn't a reason to believe anything.

I can appreciate not naming names, if true. Man eating lunch is just fine with me to keep it general.

Great. Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the cafeteria.

Ever since hearing about the Orange Julius incident I'm hyper aware of alll nearby Flames discussion while eating out

He can't name names even if he wanted to. Said he didn't recognize him. Its literally (sorry) some stranger eating lunch and talking hockey.

I wouldn't recognize many Flames hockey ops guys past BT, BB, and Maloney

I said all I have to say, take from it what you will (even if you think I'm a lying idiot)

Not to worry. I know that guy. Man Eating Lunch is a good friend of mine. But he's a blowhard, and you can't pay attention to anything he says.

Scorpion eats lunch at orange Julius, story at 11.

In my world, saying you think 2 specific players will be traded based on inside information only for that information to be revealed as some guy in the market mall food court you don't even recognize would be grounds for an immediate ban.

But what do I know? Looking forward to being trolled on deadline day by idiots who make up rumours for the notoriety of being talked about when they are exposed as frauds.

Wonderfully exciting. 10/10 poster.

Both are a full notch below Poster In Airport for reliability and creepiness.

Are you saying that you happened to be eating lunch and some random dude was discussing the merits of moving a bottom pairing defenceman? You need to keep these ones inside Scorpion....that could have been me, or him, or that dude.
