<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jtcurls</b></div><div>Not sure what differentiates speculation from reporters and my comment that it has been reported.

Campbell if he went to devils would be 4 or more years at 5 or more million so likely wouldn’t be paying that so he could “compete” for the job. I believe devils are moving to win now mode and will want an upgrade on Blackwood. Campbell is that player in my opinion.</div></div>

Reporting - “Sources indicate Toronto are in discussion with New Jersey around a trade for MacKenzie Blackwood”

Speculation - “The leafs may want to add a goalie and the Devils could look to make a change. Maybe these two teams could match-up on a Blackwood trade”

Big difference

The Devils have always been very tight-lipped (and have fewer beat reporters) so information does not come out often. Which is why we get these speculations that turn into rumors when there is no evidence.

<em>“The Devils are shopping Blackwood”</em>. No evidence of that. If anything, the GM and MackBlack has patched things up and team has recommitted to him for year.

<em>“The Devils are shopping 2nd overall pick”</em>. Again, no evidence at all. Our GM answered one question about moving his 1st round pick with a “would consider anything that helps team” type of response. That was before the lottery and it has snowballed since.

“<em>The Devils are not going to qualify Miles Wood</em>” there has been nothing about this from team. Fitzgerald has said he wants him back, considers him a big part of team, and Miles Wood has said he wants to come back.
