I'd rather see a trade when they are playing well (position of strength), rather than a trade of desperation, which is what is bound to happen now.

I mean, I obviously hope Neal is all right. I don't like seeing anyone injured and I hope he's back to full health soon.
However, Neal being "better of late" doesn't mean much when he's tracking for a 7-goal season. The Flames need a legitimate offensive player to complete their top-six. An unintended consequence of Neal's injury could be Treliving making a move to shore up the wing position, catalysed by his absence.
Either way, the Flames don't have a lot of time to heat up before the trade deadline anyway. It's in ten days. They should be adding, and they should be doing so as quickly as possible.
