Despite the low production, I've been noticing him out there a lot more lately.
For one, he doesn't get hit. He's a big guy out there that can help control the play when his hands are working (confidence) and is around the net creating opportunities. He's had quite a few go off his stick he'd want back, and it seems like a guy gripping his stick too tight more than a guy that isn't going to produce.
Soon as he finds his groove, I can't wait to see what a confident Neal does with Bennett and Jankowski.
