Rumour Mill
The transaction wire, sorted into what fantasy managers actually care about — every item linked to the outlet that did the reporting. Looking for every headline, not just trades and buzz? See the full News Wire.
Categories are assigned automatically by keyword rules and can miss nuance — when we're not confident, a story is left uncategorized rather than mislabeled. The linked report always has the full story.

Rumour vs. report
Not every headline deserves the same reaction. A beat reporter who covers one dressing room every day is the gold standard; a national insider is usually right but occasionally carrying someone's negotiation; an aggregator quoting an aggregator is weather. Every item here links to the original outlet so you can judge the sourcing yourself — that's deliberate, and it's why the source name sits under every headline.
Act on injury news and goalie news instantly — waiver value evaporates in minutes, and being an hour early on the backup who inherits a hurt starter's crease wins weeks. Act on trade and signing rumours slowly — most die quietly, and the market overreacts both ways. If a rumour does break real, check what it means in numbers on the Rankings board and on his player page before your league-mates do.
