I see Neal as RNH winger. I don’t personally see him with Mcdavid a ton. Unless mcdavid blows by everyone circles the net and can catch Neal who is just getting to the slot, I don’t think they play much 5v5 together.
If you see Neal as a winger for RNH this trade will be a nice win for Calgary as Neal will be so useless for your team. Neal had plenty of games with superior linemates in Tkachuk and Backlund (not sure who the other winger on the RNH line will be but far worse than Tkachuk guaranteed) and Neal was brutal.

Only McDavid or maybe Draisaitl will be able to get out of Neal what you are hoping for.
