This time is different though, right?

Neal has played 60 fewer games and put up 154 more points.
Brouwer has .45 points per game over his career, Neal has .70.
Neal has scored 55.56% more points per game than Brouwer has, over their careers, and 45% more points overall.
Brouwer: 763 GP 169G 172A 341P
Neal: 703 GP 263G 232A 495P
If you want to look at only the last five years:
Brouwer is .43 PPG in 396 games while Neal is .69 PPG in 349.
Goals are 129 - 83, again in Neal's favour.
So ya, it's different this time, because James Neal is a better hockey player than Troy Brouwer.
