I was on vacation while this happened. But what’s the harm here? Both players are bottom 6 players, and we get some cap space. Obviously Neal has more potential between the two players but like Hamilton he just didn’t fit. So instead of paying him $5.75M to sit in the press box or play a bottom 6 role, we pay a tougher, actual bottom 6 player $5.25M. Don’t really mind it at all other than the fact it’s a trade with the Oilers.
