More or less, yeah.
The Neal contract was the mistake. I think there were many reasons to support the signing itself when it was signed, so I don't think it was terrible hockey management, but more a terrible result.
I know I was in the camp of thinking it would be 18-22 goals for two years, one at 17, then a decline to say 15 and 10 for the final two years.
But given the fact that it didn't work out, this was the only option.
