    They more or less do that with every fish.

    I'm not sure if they are practicing for filming tomorrow or filming segments in advance to be shown tomorrow but this could be nothing.

    Interesting that it doesn't seem like they gave Seattle a real #1 or #2 Centre in that draft. Tierney & McCann and who else? Guess there's some UFA potential, but makes me go hmm....

    It's more the pick, I know they always throw the fish lol. But it's the name they used in the clip. Could be a random name used as a filler to make sure lighting and everything is good, but could be a pre-recording. We shall see. It's weird they'd use that name as a filler instead of like "George Clooney" as the filler name.

    Could just be that doing their test run in a busy public area they knew a video would get out so they may as well throw a Leafs player's name around knowing Leafs fans would generate free publicity on twitter for them about it.

    Or maybe they're doing 10 takes for each team with the possible names. Take two, McCann! Take three, Dermott! Take four, Engvall! Etc.

    Seattle tweeted out something like "not shown is 5 other takes" at the guy who tweeted teh video.

    Still, how do they allow this to be filmed by a cell phone?

    Because they "leaked" it on purpose. Look at the buzz it has generated. Making it a Leafs player was also a stroke of genius.

    I don't think they need more buzz though. They have had enough with Price the last couple of days. But whatever, if they don't select Kerfoot it looks fine, if they select Kerfoot it could be they have an issue with Leaks before even having a roster.

    Then why tweet "not shown, the 5 other takes" and squash the 'buzz' within like an hr of "leaking" the video?

    I think they had a couple of takes with different players names, and this got leaked not on purpose by the Kraken.

    Because that's how a fake leak works. C'mon man. You're not new.

    Fake leaks happen where they can talk about them on TSN/ESPN before it gets squashed usually. The timing for a fake leak is poorly exacted if that's what it was.

    You chose Toronto to do the fake leak. Let it leak at 3pm, makes the 5pm talk shows, squish it at 7pm. Just is weak if it's leaked purposely.

    Like I said, I'd consider this a mistake and not a calculate leak.

    I'd go back to your original question regarding some dude with a cell phone standing right there recording it. Surely that is not a realistic scenario?

    No it isn't. And don't call me Shirley.

    Pike Place is a very popular spot among locals and tourists. I think tweetdriver is right, this was done purposefully in a public space knowing it would be filmed, released, and discussed online.
