Here we go again.
I have an opinion! And if you disagree with me you're hilarious, oh and I checked the rest of the free world and you're alone in your funniness.
So little time for crap like that.
The Flames wanted Neal gone.
Sounds like Treliving wanted to buy him out and was told no.
Guessing they shopped him for months with no takers.
Found a deal that gave them a player that they see fitting better.
Got some cap space they needed.
Saved some real dollars.
You don't have to agree with that, but it's not a tough case to make.
