There has to be a reason that the sports media that is spoon fed information from the team is on Hamilton like Fly's on a carcass.
It is because at this time of year local media outlets are desperate for any sort of information or attention, and most of them are not altogether very creative. Given how many times the Flames have pulled the trigger on trades and acquisitions that have been missed entirely by the media, it doesn't seem at all unusual to me for local pundits to make up ####. What else are they going to report?
