I see the glorious TO media the Media that brought up Parayko to Toronto for the hot garbage Nylander. and the Pesce for mid tier spare parts....the TO media that brings stuff up to get a couple views.
I think you are referring to twitter idiots from Canada not the TO media. Also Nylander isn't hot garbage and you are getting out of hand again bud. Just take a deep breath, fire does not need to come flying out of your mouth as you rage about speculation. Because that is what you are arguing about here. Speculation. Speculation is not rumours. Despite what places like Hockeybuzz, Hockeyfeed and the Athletic want you to think.
Bob McKenzie will say what he's been told, or he'll preface his words as speculation. Most other hockey insiders these days speculate and don't say its just speculation. Then idiots on the internet interpret the words and go nuts. So in this case what is happening is, Pittsburgh has stated they are open to moving a backup goalie. That means Jarry and DeSmith are available. Now TO has been struggling and they haven't won yet with a backup in net. All of a sudden someone catches wind that people have called about Barrie, I am sure these are the actual facts.
What this rumour is, is some person claiming to be a hockey insider, connected these dots and letting the internet run wild with it.
It very well could even be something Pittsburgh has called TO about and proposed, but I doubt it. Because its a massive insult.
1) Barrie is a tonne better than he's played so far
2) There are still 61 games left in the season, its early
3) Dubas isn't going to panic
4) The next move TO will make is something minor to make room for Marner or if things continue to be bad, Babs will get fired.
There just won't be something this stupid.
