Yzerfan1999 81 Report post Posted September 22, 2009 http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/Eklund/The-...spapers/1/23132 Anyone who keeps up with Eklund or anyone over at hockeybuzz should read Eks latest post. He kind of comes out and apologizes for two straight weekends of bulls*** rumours(whats new?), and explains his position. While I never take him all too seriously, I do enjoy reading his blogs and predictions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swayze 81 Report post Posted September 22, 2009 What were the two rumors he got burned on? I read part of the article and skimmed the rest but I don't think he said em. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yzerfan1999 81 Report post Posted September 22, 2009 What were the two rumors he got burned on? I read part of the article and skimmed the rest but I don't think he said em. Yeah I am not 100% sure, but I follow him on twitter and he was going off all weekend about a HUGE DEAL that was going down between Edmonton and Philly, and he was the one talking about Frolov to Chicago for Barker and Versteeg.

Yzerfan1999 81 Report post Posted September 22, 2009 Agreed. I never disliked the guy, its a bit of a business for him - obviously he is going to report on any rumour he hears to create "buzz", you just have to take it for what its worth. I respect his hockey knowledge, and I actually do think he knows some important sources. You just have to take it for what its worth. He's a good hockey blogger otherwise, and he keeps things exciting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

miller76 463 Report post Posted September 23, 2009 Its funny that this topic has come about. I have been following him all summer. I dropped 20 dollars to his sight, purely in a bet with a friend that likes Eklund. He had to give my 20 bucks back if I could prove to him, the site is bulls***. He has a rumor chart, where the paying boosters if you will have access to the complete updated regular chart. It would have the UFA and certain interested teams with percentages next to that team. For example Mats Sundin: Detroit had a 24% chance of signing him, Toronto had 15% and say Vancouver had a smaller percentage after that. Anyways, pretty much the whole list of players never went to the places where the percentages were greater he listed. Like Bertuzzi, Detroit never had a percentage listed. Toronto, Calgary, Philly, and the Islanders were all listed. I have always thought he was bulls***, and now my little summer project proved it. He's just a blogger, making tons of money on getting people excited with baseless rumors. btw, I just got my 20 bucks yesterday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
