It's not going to help the Flames image with FA signings when the only notable one in recent history tells everyone he got treated like a bag of crap when he was struggling. He knows he sucked, we know he sucked. He is gone now that is good enough for me.
I dont want to give Edmonton any fuel to actually get up for this game either. the teams dont seem to hate each other as much as the fans do. Let Edmonton sleep walk through this one. I want the points. I dont want this to be another Doughty situation where what should be an easy game ends up being their Stanley Cup every time because we had to create drama.

This is an interesting debate you have got going. You know as well as anyone former players get booed all the time. It is an entertainment business and they do get paid big bucks. They get booed even while they are playing in their own building see the oilers who were booed off the ice and even had jerseys tossed.
It is your opinion and nothing wrong with that however you are not going to stop a bunch of fans if they decide to boo Neal, I am pretty sure they will feel it is justified! Your debate and POV are interesting in that it's likely going to happen regardless of how you might feel about it!
