I'll also admit to being one of the original skeptics to some of the CP inside stuff, but I stepped back as I understand it's fun for people and there's no value in continually bringing it up. Sec214's stuff has clearly been very on point the past couple months, there's no real skepticism against what he provides on my part.

Sometimes it seems weird how much detailed insider stuff is posted on CP (now that we have a group of proclaimed insiders) to the point where it sounds like there's sources inside Flames management offices about what could be happening, but there's not even a sniff of info when a major trade drops. I agree with that criticism to a degree.

Yes, it's true that trades get close and never happen, so that's fair that we'd have lots of inside info that doesn't come to fruition, it's more the zero knowledge when they do happen that seems weird. You'd think if the group has a million details as a collective about any given trade rumour, that they'd have some info on an actual trade before it happens.
