haha I didn't follow the entire conversation and thought you were saying you had 100+ bitcoin. I was like why the (frank) are you posting here?
- YuenglingJagr


He's pitched in 19 points in I believe 22 games played. He's still a PP weapon and he hasn't been a liability ES. I wouldn't dispute the fact that he has been down lately. But excluding him from the top 4 defenders this year for the likes of AMac I would have to vehemently disagree with. In today's league a puck moving dman like Ghost can be quite valuable. Is he young anymore? Probably not. However he's not at a point in his career where he is what he is yet.

So who do you sell the bitcoin to? Is there a bitcoin shop? It seems like it's worth a lot of money, but only imaginary money.

I'm not being a Richard, I really don't understand,

- jmatchett383


It's a cryptocurrency. Google it. My wife bought into the bitcoin trust when it was trading at just over a 100, it's now at 1800+

And many analysts think that it may gets as high as 15,000 in less than 5 years. This stock may actually help speed up my retirement!

I don't think EDM would do this. Besides a few good games last year, Weal has not shown very good results at NHL level. He's not that young...25 years old. Marron is a big body that can score when given a decent center. Then again he seems to have a bit of a discipline problem.. Not going to get much more then a guy like maroon for Weal is my point.

How can a trade fix a SHORT term problem
They played well enough against Metro teams but I wonder what was going during
3 on 3 ALL the time.Not winning a single one
In the past never watched SO because it was pointless as well they lost them all

So, just one final question:

Let's say I had 500 bitcoin, and I decide I want to sell it.

Is there a way that, in a matter of minutes, I could have no bitcoin and $5,500,000 in my bank account?

- jmatchett383



Well you would have it sold into us dollars. And than you'd have to transfer it to your bank account so 24-72 hours for your bank to deposit your money.

I agree with Hextall's comments. This team is playing well but is shooting themselves in the foot at critical moments but there isnt much you can do except ride it out. You have guys taking on roles they never had before, guys who are having those kinds of games where the puck just wont stay on your stick. This is a young team and the only way to fix it is for the team to gain this experience and find a way through. It is up to the Vets to step up and help, It is kind of like taking a garbage player, putting him up against top talent and telling him to learn to be a better player on his own. That isnt going to happen. As some one who has plays hockey, When I started I wasnt very good. I just picked up a stick and started to play. Sure there were things I picked up one by watching others play but there were many things I learned from other players directly, telling me where I should be without the puck ect. Like this team there are times where I handle the puck like it is a grenade but after a while I became much stronger and started to handle it a lot better.

This team has shown on multiple occasions it has what it takes to win but those key moments when they shoot themselves in the foot is what is costing us those wins. At the same time we need much more from the other players on the ice. The production from the 2nd line down is unacceptable.

84 points form the top line
26 points from the 2nd line (With Weal instead of Martell as he has 0 points)
23 points from our 3rd line
11 points from our 4th line

Our top line almost has double the amount of points of the other 3 lines combined!

Really? From what I've heard, you have to manually find a buyer, then set up a transaction, exchange some fairly sensitive private information, and then you can do it. Not as easy as calling a stock broker and cashing out immediately.

Ditto!

I love G and he stands up and takes it night after night.

He has no secondary support. all 3 lines after his, stink!

The fourth line is as bad as it was last season. Different names same results.

Has anyone seen Simmonds the last 10 games? I haven't.

Flip provides nothing, including veteran leadership.

Speaking of leadership, i thought this was one of the reasons they slapped the A on AMac, because of the guy he was in the locker room...

He has been back in the lineup how long?

Here's a couple of guys I'd be willing to trade Weal for. All are in the last year of their deals, have decent size and wheels, and all are vets that can kill penalties

Blake Comeau currently with Colorado, age 31
Colton Sceviour currently with Florida, age 28

26 + 23 + 11 = 60
60 x 2 = 120
120 - 84 = 36
36\3 = 12

It would take just 12 points per player on the top line to make that up which for the most part at least 2/3 get a point on a goal from the top line.

So even if there is no buyer, you can sell it? Is coinbase just some broker sort of thing that stores bitcoin until a buyer comes along so you don't have to find a buyer yourself?
