You don’t have to like and/or justify everything. Disingenuousness is not a noble trait just because it’s your favourite team doing it

Is there though?
Neal wasn't working out, that was talked out for months. Most, certainly me, assumed his deal was next to impossible to move.
Shocking deal comes for a player that I and many have called "a crap player" and "a guy I never wanted on the Flames", which don't exactly seem like ringing endorsements.
So that leaves a hostility towards hockey fans looking for a fit or a silver lining? Adding some toughness and a guy that can compete in his own zone vs a guy that could only score and may never do so again.
Is that really so much spin, or is it looking at a roster again after a shocking change and seeing why it works better or not than the older version.
I see a group of people that want to be mad, and instead of just being mad they tend to get mad at those that aren't as mad. Puzzles me.
