Remember when CP nearly burnt to the ground because of "rumours" Gaudreau wasn't going to sign with the Flames coming out college? What were those rumours based on? Another college player doing the same thing before? They got turned into an entire story that wasn't there.
Rumours may be true. They're just as likely to be false.

That's true, but there's a history of this with Drouin. He's played on two teams since Midget Hockey and both have had complete ####shows surrounding him. The hockey Canada and sulking are definitely rumors, but what happened in Halifax is reality. Where there's smoke, there's fire.
I'm not so sure those were rumors with Gaudreau either. I actually believe there was a significant chance Gaudreau was going to walk, his family didn't want him that far away, and without that full-court press the Flames and Conroy put on we'd be some pretty bitter people right now.
