Plus I'd give some rumours more credit based on the frequency and the sources, two things that I believe we see in the Eichel discussions.
Add in the fact that Treliving is in on everything and it becomes less of a threshold to be a factual rumour.
Are you really suggesting the two teams aren't talking? Talk about a salmon and upstream.

I've always laughed when people get mad that a rumour doesn't come true, That's why it's a rumour.
These NHL GMs have multiple discussions each week on ways to improve their teams, potential trades, etc. And they probably result in a trade less than 1% of the time.
Just because a rumor doesn't come true doesn't mean those discussions didn't happen.
