I don't relish being a negative Nancy so I did not participate in the Neal signing thread but it seemed to me at the time to be a dreadful mix of both parties' desperation. Neal wasn't getting offers with term and Calgary was coming off finishing 27th in the league in goals.
So you do it extremely often but don't enjoy it?

Neal was a different beast in Calgary though. Not sure you can find the examples of Neal getting moved to the bottom of the roster or the press box in the other locales.

And maybe he wasn't a problem in the room. The Gaudreau Lucic call makes it seem that way but I certainly don't know.
