No one outside of the Calgary fan base has watched James Neal’s last 67 games of “NHL hockey”. The 67 games where he bitched about not getting to play in the top 6, despite being an absolute anchor on the line (w/Bennett & Jankowski) he was on.
James Neal sucks, detracted from this team’s culture, and we couldn’t afford to pay him 5.75M. The Oilers have now committed to paying him 6.5M, essentially.
