What is the E-System (e1, e2, e3, etc.)?
The E-System was devised with the intelligent hockey fan in mind as a way for Eklund to give subtle clues to rumors that are posted, as well as gauge the likelihood of a rumor turning into an actual trade or free agent signing.
E1 - This is a rumor that comes from a single reliable source not in any way directly connected to the players or teams involved.
E2 - This rumor is simply more than one reliable sources not in any way directly connected to the players or teams involved and not connected to each other. It does not have to equate to two E1’s. It could be several E1’s.
E3 - This rumor comes from a single source with ties somehow to the players or teams involved.
E4 - This rumor comes from more than one source with ties to the players or teams involved.
E5 - This rumor comes from source telling Eklund the deal is 100% done and just has not been announced yet.

It's the probably factor that Eklund puts on his guesses, so it's kinda found it's way on here for all sarcastic pseudo guesses.

If they dump Meyer in a trade, I would welcome Cairns back as a No. 7 D-Man.

Meyer is a favorite whipping boy, but he has his uses and to wish him gone for nothing (as many do, not necessarily you) is foolish.
Also, IF we trade, it will likely BE for a Dman. Which makes Cairns an EXTRA stupid pickup IMO.
He ... can't ... skate ...!
oh, and he has waaay too many PIMs. He's probably never been in on a PK ... :blink:

Emoticon rationing....
Back to the topic, I've actually been pleased with the lack of rumors coming from the front office. I think that is a compliment to Garth and crew.
On the other hand, the promise to have Islander's Insider be the source and/pr Islanders.nhl.com break news... well, hasn't happened.

| Islanders re-sign D Fata, LW Regier The New York Islanders took a step into the future today after re-signing two of their young guns. The NHL Line has learned that the Islanders have agreed to terms with 23-year old defenceman Drew Fata and 22-year old left wing Steve Regier. Fata played in 3 games for the Islanders last season and had 1 goal, while Regier was only able to participate in one game. |
on nhlpa, their salaries are for 495k each.
bet it's 2-way deal.
