    Well if its fake news... we might as well expand on it and say its McDavid for Risto straight up!

    Flyers need a miracle!

    I realize the tweet was fake.

    However, I could definitely see Ristolainen getting dealt to a contender, and the Oilers could work. Risto & Jones for Koskinen & a 3rd rounder or something could work. I'd suspect the Flyers would be more likely to want Keith or Barrie than Koskinen, though. Fletcher likes those veteran defenseman.

    That doesn't make the rumour real.....

    Are any rumours ever real? Isn't a rumour always a rumour until it becomes real or fact?

    And if I read correctly... stevegamer says 'I realize the rumour was fake' thus making your response completely irrelevant...

    However, If the Flyers do trade Risto... it appears they will get nowhere near the same price that they gave away to acquire him.

    Not at all. Teams talk about players all the time. Insiders have connections and learn about those conversations. Whether the trade happens or not, that they are talking is real, and therefore a real rumour.

    If I say that the Oilers are talking to the Flames about a McDavid for Tkachuk trade, that’s obviously very different.

    Would this not make it a fact that the Oilers and Flames are talking about about a McDavid/Trakchuk trade? Whether he is traded or not... it is a fact that they are discussing the trade.

    If we look at the definition of rumour - https://www.merriam-webster.com/dict...rumor#synonyms


    1. talk or opinion widely disseminated with no discernible source
    2. statement or report current without known authority for its truth
    Has the sports world manipulated the definition for rumour? If a rumour 'has no discernible source' ' or is 'without known authority'

    I guess what I am trying to ask is that if a rumour is real... does that not make it become fact?
    At what point does a rumour no longer become a rumour?

    And is saying 'The Flyers are going to trade Ristolainen' considered a rumour, speculation, or something else?

    Wow this got knit picky.

    Risto isn't going to Edmonton unless they move Barrie. They have Ceci, Barrie, and Bouchard for RHD. They don't have cap space and they'd be acquiring him to dump cap next yr as I can't see them spending $6mill/yr on an extension for Risto.

    Risto to Edmonton doesn't really make sense.
