Neal is being gifted time in Edmonton because they have zero depth. A lot of their players are just feasting of the PP early on.
I don't know who else plays with Neal, but RNH has zero goals and 1 assist at even strength. To take any stat after 5 or 6 games and thing that will be the case for the remaining 76 games is ridiculous. Unless you truly believe the Neal will continue to have a shooting % of 40% and the Oilers will continue to run their PK at 95% and their PP at 40%.
Bottom line I want him to hit 21 goals because I want that draft pick. I think even with the quick start I don't think it is a slam dunk for the conditions to be met.
