One thing to remember, the closer we get to the draft, the bigger the poker game becomes, especially with leaks like these two. Its all a giant poker game right now, so take anything said to be coming from an NHL "source" with a grain of salt IMO.

My flaw with your argument is what poker game is in the interview process? If Columbus says he was a great interview what does that matter to the Flames of they thought he did a terrible interview with them? By most accounts the kid didn't fare well at the combine. It remains to be seen how this will affect where he gets drafted but I expect he didn't do himself any favours.
