A few people are reporting the Sedin’s have agreed to a contract with Vancouver.
Nope, not true and if you go back to those sites, they may have been deleted or changed, either way, they were wrong to begin with.

Ha Lyle, by no means was I referring to you. I am sure you will correct it or have already, while others just delete it like it never happened.
We all make mistakes, but some refuse to admit them.

I got duped by a fake twitter account on the same rumor. GRRRR....

The problem is YC, you can’t verify those accounts either.
So did this whole thing start as a joke or what?
I am too busy to track it down right now.

Surely you jest Paul, that certain person is right at least 2.2% of the time....

Since Paul is too much of a gentleman to say it, I will. It’s EKLUND...EKTURD...EKBS. He’s the scumbag deleting things he’s gotten wrong...and that, folks, is a lot of deleting.
Ahhhh, I feel almost like I’ve had a refreshing shower after saying that.

Mistakes happen, deleting posts to make it look as if it never happened, no excuse for that.
Heck, chances are the twins will sign with Vancouvre, but they haven’t yet.

oh, big surprise, that greasy-haired f&ck;, eklund, is spouting ignorance again.

This was all over the Flames’ boards. We were laughing when Dwayne reported it, laughing harder when he said “maybe”, laughing even HARDER when he said it was an error, and was DROOLING with laughter when he deleted it. What an ***hole! LOL

I really wish Twitter had exact time stamps on it. Eklunds twitter has this post…
in a few minutes.....I swear. higgins may be going to......
It was posted “about 2 hours ago”
Thats some great inside info.
He must follow Kevin Allen who had this up…
Canadiens’ Higgins just traded to the Rangers, details to follow shortly as I get them.
except it was posted “about 3 hours ago”
I really can’t believe people pay for Eklunds crap.

@kstewy - If you import your Twitter feeds into Outlook, you’ll get a timestamp that way…
Posted by Tony F from Virginia Beach, VA on 06/30/09 at 06:38 PM ET
kstewy16 and too bad Twitter doesn’t show deletions either.
Dwayne had Sedin’s Sign, the next few minutes it is gone.
Like I said mistakes happen, but in my opinion it is better to correct them than to delete them.

Old Eklund changed his site from “Sedins Signed In Vancouver” to “Sedins Signed In Vancouver-maybe”
His members are ripping him a new a-hole in the forums...lol
Eklund is just out to lunch as usual....

... and on “those other sites” you never have to read about how they feel someone reported something the “wrong way” (or maybe they do write this kind of stuff? it’s only vague implications on your part an thus impossible to know for sure who you’re referring to) after all, maybe it’s just jealousy on your part “Why does he get more hits on his site than me? He doesn’t report things the way I think it should be done!”

Bolin, I have no interest in attracting the kind of audience he gets. People who believe what he writes are not the type of hockey fan I want hanging around KK.

I heard it initially via Bob McKenzie on TSN and posted it accordingly since if it comes from Bob it’s almost always golden, but he cautioned at the outset he was awaiting more details and quickly followed up that the report was erroneous.
