Did you see Lucic in the Minnesota highlights? Guy was everywhere and making plays on top of it all. I never saw that kind of ability from Neal any point this season. He was a complete black hole offensively.
I wasn’t expecting much when I clicked on those highlights, but I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised at the little things he can do especially along the boards and around the net. The nifty plays and heaviness is something the Flames can use.
The Oilers may have ultimately misused him for the last 1.5 seasons I’m thinking. With a better supporting cast, maybe his career turns around like Justin Schultz.
