He left breadcrumbs. Message board equivalent of clickbait.

Once he was pushed for more details though he shared what he was comfortable sharing.
Agree that his initial post was trollish but he ended up giving more details after that. Once he gave those details there was no reason for Flash & others to keep going at him.
There are 11k plus posts in this thread - and maybe 50 trades have been made in the NHL this season, and maybe 10 of those trades had any consequence.
Most of what we talk about in this thread is BS. I'd much rather people feel comfortable to post what they are hearing, even if they are just having a little fun with it. Really it's what makes CP so great, because even though 99% of it is false there are times where we do get the tidbit of information that ends up being true.
And if we call every new poster an idiot for sharing something that might not be true or happen then nobody will feel comfortable posting.
