But if you're going to take this defamation stance you better be consistent and defend other people like Eklund too who are "defamed" all the time on here.
You seriously don't see the difference between the two?

So that's Friedman, Dreger and Monahan all saying it should be done within days. One said "about a week," one said "within days," the other said "soon."

I don't see any reason not to believe those three.

Francis doesn't make stuff up, he is fed misinformation. He gets used and abused like the boob he is. Do you think he cares? Nope. Then when he acts like a good boy and pleases his masters, he gets night before signing scoops like Monny. I figured this would be pretty commonly understood.

My god. I can't wait for this contract to get signed. This has been excruciating, both as a fan and as a member of this forum.

I chose not to believe anything until its pen to paper and we don't have to worry about this agent for 7 or 8 years.

There are certainly people who have brought up a trade who would have scoffed at the idea of that ever being a consideration a few months ago.

In fact, they'll believe an agent who for some reason sat by the phone for a month, waiting for a call, without thinking about dialing himself!

FYI.

The 'source' I cited earlier with the gap being over term, is expressing they also heard a deal is imminent. Hopefully within 48 hours. They had nothing to offer about term and/or dollars, but it will be done by the weekend.

All I can say is they do work for the team. And they aren't selling Pocket Dawgs.

Oh man, I could go for a pocket dawg right now. Why don't you know anyone who works for them?

Just want to point out again that I've said a few times I expected this to be done prior to the last pre season game. So if/when it happens, and I seem like an insufferable know it all, thats why.

Gaudreau signing might be the most catastrophic CP server meltdown of all time.
