I can't imagine he plays ever again.

Serious question - was there ever a worse player on Calgary?

Take a look at Neal's 7 goals that season - all of them were basically flukes.

His metrics showed that he brought down EVERY player he played with, no? I remember Peters would throw him up with Gaudreau and Monahan (while they were still really lighting it up) after every PK, but that line produced absolutely nothing with him on it.

He didn't play defence. He couldn't pass. He didn't play physical. Then he goes and complains about his ice time during the playoffs in front of all his teammates?

Even McDavid stopped being able to bounce some pucks off his rear. Neal is the worst player that I ever remember playing for the Flames, and I have been watching this team since the early 80's when they moved to Calgary.

I would be shocked if he gets a PTO - and if he does, that's all he will get.
