Matt was essentially a 3rd overall pick. It doesn't cost 3 x 1sts to move up one spot when you are giving up the younger, healthier player.

This statement is nonsense. Where they were drafted isn't relevant anymore.

Yeah, I prefer GMs who are never in on anything.
Treliving has done as many big deals as most GMs in the league, both trades and UFAs.
And it’s “affect”.

Steve Macfarlane says Monahan is on the table as well

Wednesday night, multiple sources confirmed to CHN that the Calgary Flames have made Matthew Tkachuk available to the Buffalo Sabres, as tweeted by ESPN’s Kevin Weekes. However, one source close to the situation also included Sean Monahan. A second source later confirmed Monahan is also part of the conversation.

Again, which high ranking person in any nhl club would share information with Friedman of all people?
Don't know how this guy knows anything. The back and forth week to week while being as vague and non committal as possible in his hunches tells me he's just playing telephone at nhl media Orange Julius.

He doesn't. He just has lots of contacts and media he leaches from.

Proof that for some people it does not matter what you do or don't do—they will always find reasons to denigrate you.

To be fair, 99% of player interviews are unbearable.

Slightly OT, but Fight Club is a movie whose point was missed by most of the people who love it.

It’s probably more like “If you take Tkachuk you get these prospects, if you take Monahan you get these”. Or maybe it’s Monahan and Valimaki versus just Tkachuk.

Friedman has a massive audience, which is the most important thing when you want to get something out.
Most of his ‘insider info’ is from teams/players/coaches/GMs who want to get something out there unofficially, for whatever reason.
