Friedman: Gibson is interested in Carolina, or Edmonton

What an expansive and not at all selective history of goalie trades

I wouldn't say I was "crapping" on it...I was simply pointing out that it was from November before Gibson had even played a handful of games. I also pointed out that there was no solid reporting...just LeBrun speculating. The same seems true of Friedman. No source...no credibility.

You don't seem to understand how rumour reporting works in professional sports. Almost exclusively, these sorts of reports come without a "source" because the source cannot be identified.

"Sources" in these cases are almost always the players agent, or somebody from within an NHL front office, and they are never going to be named, that's why they are offered up as "Rumors" rather than "Facts."

This is really basic stuff and the idea that a "rumour" has no credibility because it isn't public sourced absurd.

Edmonton has nothing that they would be willing to trade that Anaheim would want, for Gibson.
Getting Gibson is a pipe dream created to tease desperate Oilers fans.

You're talking like Gibson is this massively sought after commodity in the league. He isn't.
