Rob Rossi Rumor Tracking Website

[columbia]

Might be missing something, but can't recall Rossi having any news on Kunitz. For having the "inside track" on the Penguins, he sure missed a big story.

I was going to say what Kunitz news???....then looked at Twitter.

[Boogeyman]

@TSNBobMcKenzie: Kris Letang's agent Kent Hughes on reports their preferred destination is TOR: "We haven't discussed the Toronto Maple Leafs. Period...

Well, that ends that lol

[Boogeyman]

Kunitz it is then. Kunitz it is.

It was good while it lasted JVR.

My nickname for Rossi is "Monkey". Both throw crap at people.

Yes, the great insider Rossi totally missed the Kunitz story. But I'm sure he'll tweet something like he knew but couldn't tell anyone.

I have to laugh at the one line from this article he wrote: http://triblive.com/sports/penguins/424 ... z2XQEsqMSl

"Toronto has emerged as a possible destination if talks break down and the Penguins decide to trade Letang, though Shero has not talked with the Maple Leafs about a possible deal."

Doesn't the second part of that sentence contradict the first?

Rob Rossi's "source" is Bob Mckenzie's twitter feed.

Yea, it does. Plus he has other quotes from Letang saying : “I'm focused on the Penguins,” Letang said. “I've never thought about playing anywhere else.”

so I am not sure where any of this is coming from in regards to the leafs unless it is just another rossi bs rumor.

A defensemen would have to come with any trade. Phaneuf isn't an option. What about Carl Gunnarsson?

I don't think Toronto is a great trade partner. Plus, I hate that Rossi is starting a rumor that would handcuff shero in trade options. rossi is an idiot

If (and that's a huge if) TOR ends up dealing, I'd imagine Shero would be interested in Franson. Righty, and Shero was also assistant GM in Nashville when they drafted him.

“Our focus has been on negotiating a contract with the Pittsburgh Penguins and we have not discussed the Toronto Maple Leafs,” Hughes told ESPN.com via email Thursday morning. “He remains under contract for one more year if we don't extend his contract. We are not the source of the story, nor were we contacted to verify its accuracy beforehand.”

Any trade with TML starts with jake gardiner and add pieces from there if I'm GM

How about Gardiner, Kulemin and Toronto's 1st for Letang and the rights to Dupuis

Not sure you even need to add Dupuis' rights. That have little value at this point.

It just gives the TML a few extra days to sign Dupuis and save a few bucks versus waiting until he hits the UFA market.

[slappybrown]

Are you adding the fact that his "Pens believe Letang will want 7-8mm" was right on target as a correct rumor?

[Crankshaft]

He hasn't updated the website since he posted it. And the original rumor wasn't even Rossi's, was it? The whole website is dumb.

That's what this team needs, another Dman/rover, an average winger (seriously, I never understood this boards love affair with Kulemin). They better get more than that. Pens fans will be saying the same about Gardiner in a year as they say about Letang now.

I'm sure the board will implode when the trade is made. Everybody wants the other teams #1 defensemen back, a first round pick, and a prospect. Its not going to happen.

There needs to be an Eklund like rating system for Rossi.

R5= actually confirmed by at least 3 other legitimate sources (TSN, Dreger, MacKenzie, Molinari etc)
R4= confirmed by at least 1 other legit source plus the use of multiple quotes in a way other than twisting them to fit into a theory
R3= the use of 1 quote taken wildly out of context meshed with info copied and pasted straight from TIOPS
R2= Entire column of speculation and rumor mongering with a generous portion of attention whoring with no sourced material whatsoever.
R1= Full Rossi
