I mean I guess the timeline is a bit similar.
In 2016, Flames acquire Vey, Chiasson, Pribyl before they sign the big RW cherry on top in Brouwer.
In 2018, the Flames acquire, Elias Lindholm, Derek Ryan and Austin Czernik before the big RW cherry on top in James Neal.
Perhaps we should compare careers of both sets of players. And which of those RW's are still with the team.
If Brouwer could have managed to pot 30 points in at least one of his first two seasons
he wouldn't be the hangman on the platform. But he didn't.
And lets compare Neal to Brouwer for a second. Brouwers potted 20 goals in a season....3 times.
Neal has potted 20 goals minimun a season....10 times in a row.
catching the drift yet?
