So we have the owner of a mid-sized construction company who put together a pretty flimsy bid two years ago, who likes to talk big and a bunch of fanboys on twitter grasping at a theory of the week.

2 sources for a sale to Desmarais or Laliberte are hardly "Fanboys on twitter";

Francois Gagnon from TSN/RDS
JC Lajoie from 91.9sport Montreal

In addition to numerous hockey insider blogs like danslescoulisses. Its always the same people involved and the name Alfredsson keeps coming up.

regardless of what stage a sale or no sale is at; I'm not trying to convince you of anything. Yes, fanboys on twitter have expressed a desire for the team to be sold-with due cause IMHO.

At the end of the day 2 things are clear;

1. We will get a hint on January 25 of where Lebreton is at
2. Melnyk is going to have to do something-his cashflow and the fans disgust for him are going to force movement of some type.

I personally believe Laliberte and/or Desmarais with Alfredsson in tow are trying to buy the team. maybe an offer has been made.

Another twitter fanboy states that a firm offer has been made which is conditional on the lebreton deal getting done. His source is "someone from inside". He even cites specific numbers.

You can believe it or not, what will be will be but it is real smoke people are seeing, not idle chit chat.
