Even thought the TSN guys are really solid, I feel like this is one of those situations that we often talk about on CP as having grown from nothing in a random sarcastic discussion with Boomer and Rhett in the morning.
Button and other TSN host guy, Rishaug maybe?, make off the cuff comment, clearly meant to be half joking, about the Flames moving Hamilton to the Oilers for #4. Media outlets then take the text of it, without context, and start talking like it was a legit discussion and say that "experts and insiders are saying Calgary may be shopping Hamilton". Then someone else runs with it and leaves out the "may" part and says "insider told me Flames shopping Dougie".
I'm actually a little disappointed to see that Mac may have added fuel to this fire. He usually shoots them down if they aren't legit. And I have a hard time seeing this as legit, unless maybe Chia asked if Hamilton was available and BT just laughed until Chia hung up in shame.
