In the same way, if you trade six pieces instead of four, you are depriving your team of a couple of potentially very useful players.



Interesting that you should choose Bitcoin as an example. You could as easily have chosen tulip bulbs in 17th-century Holland.



Tell you what, you lose everything you own and tell me how little it matters to you.



No one player is ever essential to a winning team. You're fixated on Eichel and believe that there are no alternatives, because you want exactly that kind of a player and have hypnotized yourself (with much help from other posters) into the belief that the team cannot possibly win without him.

If you trade so much for Eichel that you leave him with a supporting cast as bad as he had in Buffalo, you will get the same results as Buffalo. He's not a miracle-worker.

It's funny that you're using all this language like "hypnotized" and "fixated" when you are far and away the most active poster on this subject. Could it be that you are the one who is fixated by this rumors, just in opposite sense of the majority?
