Perhaps he forced their hand, but I don’t like the knee jerk reaction from Tree. We’ve been extremely patient with players like Bennett, yet we rush out a proven vet who constantly scores 20+.
Obviously we don’t know what happened behind closed doors, and who knows, maybe he would have never worked in Calgary. I just wish a bit more patience was shown.

Its been suggested Neal and Peters did not agree with his benching in Game 5 last year, and a trade had to happen.
Neal was the worst Flame I've ever seen. I'd say rather have Lucic currently and don't care of Neal scores 50 for Edmonton. Good riddance.
