I have heard this theory more than once.
I don't think anyone can prove it, but I am quite certain that we post among player agents, players or their family and staff. It has to be, the extent and who we don't know.
It's a hockey centric site sheltered from X drama and anonymous so it makes sense for Jr's and players cutting their teeth wanting to see what the raw fan level perception is of them is, if only for curiosities sake.
Journalists mine these forums for talking points. Lots of people bring up interesting things here. I remember a bunch of us talking about the Leafs problems leading to a lost generation of Leafs fans and within 48hrs I think Dregger was talking about that. Seen a lot of that.
It seems more likely than the alternative. It would be weirder if none of them were here.
I also think that it applies twice for people talking hockey for a living.
Not to mention I had a similar experience watching Dangle podcast post postseason. No evidence, but it felt like they were re-hashing what was discussed here close to verbatim.
