I think the situation with Neal was unfortunate -whether he was in the dog house or not. I think we all assumed he was turning out to be another Brouwer. Glad he turned out better with the Oilers. At the same time, I think Lucic was necessary to be with the Flames as the team needed to be bigger and more gritty. You can tell that Lucic's size made some differences as the season wore on. I wished we could've afforded Lucic at the height of his career.
