Thing is, the deal fell through. There are a million moving parts, even in the super straight forward trades and free agent signings. You could be talking to Conroy himself and think something is a sure-thing and then something happens to scuttle it. Remember when Iginla was definitely going to Boston?

I don't really understand why people would pile on guys posting what they know here.
There's probably 100 or more posters here with connections of some sort like yourself.
Only a couple have made a point to label themselves and make sure everyone knows they are insiders.
Definitely nothing wrong with that and I agree no point in piling on them, but I also don't get the obsession with asking them what's going on all the time.
They know no more or less than many other CP members who aren't claiming the insider title.

The truest insider here is clearly Sureloss.
The speed and accuracy at which they post every legit transaction and serious rumour is amazing. I wonder if they're an AI bot, it just seems impossible to be that quick and accurate all the time.
And they never ask for credit or validation either. Sureloss is god.
