And before you say that's because Neal was playing with Malkin, well, Simmonds hit his career-high of 60 points playing with Giroux. His career-high in hits is also lower than Neal's.
No one is afraid of Brouwer or Neal was what I was getting at. How many big hits have you seen Neal lay this year also? I’ll take quality of hits over quantity any day.
