Default Eklund is a joke

Checkout his garbage post just now:



Quote:
Remember rumours are rumours are rumours...so, PLEASE do not take this too seriously folks. As it gets closer to July 1, it continues to intensify. Every now and again it is important to inform you of a few rules around these parts. (only #7 really matters)

1. I do not make this stuff up.

2. I do not trust everyone.

3. I am fully aware of how I am being used from time to time, but I have learned to tell the difference...it isn\'t hard to tell.

4. I like to think that we provide a fun place for die-hard hockey fans to discuss these rumors and the possibilities.

5. I don\'t expect 90% of the rumours I post to eventually amount to anything, but the fun part is the discussion and the 10% that do.

6. It should be fun ALL the time.

7. It is ONLY Hockey
this is right after his Mike Milbury leaving the Islanders post was \"mysteriously removed\".

Who actually believes this guy?

I for one am a fan of HockeyBuzz in general. I read it more for the blogs that the \"reporters\" write. It\'s fun to get a front row seat to practices/post-games. As far as his rumors go, they\'re fun to read and speculate, but I don\'t put any real weight into them. Overall it\'s just another group of dedicated hockey fans giving there opinions/insights. And can we really ever have too many dedicated hockey fans?

Well don\'t know the context of this comment but... http://tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=209244&hubname=nhl

I don\'t even know who this guy you\'re talking about is so I don\'t have a comment on him but Milbury is gone from the Ilse it looks like.

It isn\'t really that hard to browse the net for hockey boards and change posts you read from \"I think\" into \"I heard\" and pass it off as a rumor. I\'m just surprised he still has so many followers. Can\'t fault him for making a buck or two either I guess.

What I find most galling are his constant claims that players, coaches, gm\'s etc are emailng him, calling him, taking him out to dinner, asking his advice, making bets with him, etc. Not a day goes by where some player doesn\'t ask him about a major career move, a gm informs him of a possible trade, or he has dinner with gary bettman to discuss new rule changes.

Yea, those claims are pretty ridiculous.
