Well I hadn't heard a conspiracy theory for a while......
I don't know if it's so much a conspiracy theory as an observation on a modus operandi. Bay St. knows that most of the juniours won't amount to anything, but they can still make their $$ off of them every step of the way. It's completely irrelevant to them whether there is real value behind the paper, or just more paper.
My only concerns are that SGR and the Canucks perform as they should. The lesson given the Flyers a couple of days back bodes well for the latter.
