murraycraven Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Reading the hockey buzz today and saw this one : On Yakupov...Here come the Flyers. I am hearing of a possible deal that would send Travis Sanheim plus a draft pick to Edmonton for Yakupov...Montreal is still involved...and may still be the favorite. if this happened to turn out to be this would literally place Hextall on the Homer spectrum. No f'ing way this deal should even be mentioned but then again it is Ek.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philly29 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Damn ek is a freaking idiot. I mean this puts him in a whole new level of stupid WOW. Does he pay attention at all seriously and he actually makes a pay check? Fck me man what a world we live in Ek is like the weaher channel they both get paid to be full of ****.

yave1964 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Good lord how stupid would that one be. He has to be sitting around his lonely apartment with no air conditioning and simply picks two teams out of the hat and randomly selects players to suggest traded for each other. I think he tries to be stupid, most fans tune into his crap to see what the latest absurdity is not to hunt for potential good old fashioned insight. I remember a few years ago when Toronto was out of it (like always) and the Kaberle rumors were going around, for a year he had him going everywhere and nothing happened. The following year, he listed Kaberle damn near every day going somewhere, and the day before the deal went down he said he had heard he was going to Boston.Well sure as shooting Kaberle was sent to Beantown and Ek beat the Hell out of his chest with an 'as reported here yesterday' quote which was nauseating. The man is clueless. I would not take anything coming out of his mouth serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a moron that guy i feel bad because i/we shouldn't be even discussing this .... .....but i guess what the hell we don't have anything else to talk about till the Sharks upset the Pens in their barn to win their 1st Cup to kick start the new year.

Your better for doing it you bring the attention of the masses that eklund is indeed a freaking idiotic, moronic, jackarse that gets paid for being one. So for that you have my thanks!

FD19372 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Yes, because who doesn't want a lazy player, who looks disinterested half the time. Besides which, we haven't had enough of those recently. NO WAY on Sanheim for Yakupov. Eklund is like the hockey rumor equivalent of the National Enquirer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yave1964 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 @Samifan LOL! That is about right! I am telling you the whole Kaberle thing for a year and a half saying today is the day and every day a different team too, I dont know why I kept reading but I did, and the day before hearing that he heard Boston and sure as Hell it was indeed Boston after he was WRONG for 540 days or so, give or take but mentioning the damn guy in his headline at least three times a week, and then he boasted, Sami, he freaking BOASTED with, 'as read here first yesterday' I swear to God if I had a dog I would have kicked it just to take it out on somebody. I think it was three months before I visited that wretched site again, I try to avoid it still unless absolutely necessary. 40 year old virgin sounds right. The guy is hopeless.

Sorta like some fans round these parts who keep saying their team is gonna be good....then, six or seven years later when they finally are, they say, "See, I have been saying it all along!"....haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FD19372 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 In a week, we'll probably start hearing Morin, Voracek and Ghost for Stamkos rumors, and then rumors all summer of him going to the other 30 teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 In all seriousness, I don't see how a guy like Eklund can be taken seriously by anyone...even his own colleagues. I mean, to be wrong as often as he has been...at some point, I would think he just becomes background noise. Or worse yet, teams, agents and other media people "say things" that are unfounded around him, on purpose, because they know he has a propensity to make a big "breaking news" story out of it. You know, for chits n giggles....kinda like pranking jobs at any other work place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Monet Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Out here in Oregon I don't see much but I have seen Travis play live. This kid is NOT on the trading block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Just because there isn't much to talk about i'll play.... ....i would trade maybe Hagg or Yakupov (underachiever for underachiever)....but that is about it...but like i said we don't need another RW. They are set at RW for awhile. Jake, Simmmer, Read, Aube-Kubel, Straka (RFA) so really not a lot of need there at the moment. If he could play LW i'd be more interested maybe but this guy is nowhere what the Flyers needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just think, in a couple of days we'll be talking about how the Penguins blew a 3-1 series lead and lost the Cup to the Sharks. That's a whole summer's worth of fun.

I wouldn't trade Sanheim either for Yak but I'd at least talk to Edmonton about what it might take. There's a reason the guy went in the first round.

BobbyClarkeFan16 Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 The only way I'd consider moving Sanheim is if Taylor Hall is coming the other way. Even then I'd be hesitant about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samifan Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 You guys are forgetting about Eklund's verification system that ensures his rumors are legit. Let's use (e5) for example. The "e" stands for emaginary, yes Eklund thinks it's spelled with an e. The number following it is for the number of "emaginary" friends or stuffed animals that agree with his rumors. This is an upgrade from his previous system where the number stood for the number of people in his grandmother's bridge club that agreed with him.
