ParticipantSometimes, the blogs would be pretty decent. Meltzer comes to mind. Even Engels had his moments. The rest of them regurgitated stuff, were there to practice writing, or were just trolls.
Not once do I ever recall going to Hockeybuzz for news or for an “insider” opinion. It was 100% about the forums.

Jeepers creepers, I can’t believe I’m defending Ek and his stable of bloggers, but here goes:
Hockeybuzz was a stepping stone for more than a few bloggers to go on to respectable writing gigs.

ParticipantSo. What do they need to add to Robertson in a deal for Rickard Rakell? Kampf for salary, Hildeby and the first 2028? Not sure they have the assets for it without giving up Cowan which would likely be a mistake.
I don’t think the Leafs should give a 1st for Rakell. For me at most, is 2nd depending who is being moved.

ParticipantI’m not sure Ek ever understood what made his site work. He seemed to believe that we were all drawn by all the roomers (E1’s to E5’s) or by the his insights and not that he just gave everyone a home to bitch or troll Leaf fans
~CCI’m old enough, (and I’m sure you are too), to remember the absolute pinnacle of an Ek rumor was an E4, that was a done deal, guaranteed to happen. But then Ek got so damn many E4s wrong that he had to create a new, higher level. Once he gets one of those wrong, we’ll see E6s I’m sure LMFAO.
The last time Eklund got a roomer correct was the Dustin Bufyuglgiglin trade to the Thrashers lol

UG’s definition of being a Leaf fan:
Trash the team and all of its fans on a full time basis.

ParticipantSomehow someway both sites will end up merging.
No chance. This will become a silo and echo chamber for the left wing lock until they also get bored and go back.
That’s exactly what we want. It’s working to perfection. Lock this place down like Nova Scotia. Liberal Hivemind or bust.
