Of course it's very easy for Gillis to say he 'knew' O'Reilly would pass through waivers. What else is he going to say? He's not going to admit to not knowing something that another GM is getting raked over the coals for not knowing. Especially after (apparently false) rumours that the canucks also tendered an offer sheet to O'Reilly.
I don't think we can infer anything from his response to the question.
