So no ... I'd say he was given looks and it didn't happen here. Should he have been given a longer look? I would say so. Were certain players death to anyone that played with them (Neal)? Absolutely.
Which is why I said both sides.
But When you play 500 minutes with Mikael Backlund in three seasons and don't get much done it's hard to avoid the mirror.

Can’t tell if serious
Quick calculation
Say a guy plays 16 minutes a night x 82 games x 3 years. That’s 3900 minutes
Spreading 500 minutes out over 3 seasons, on W, not his natural position, and knowing there was time sprinkled in there with guys like Joakim Nordstrom… that’s your long look? I don’t think that’s a reason to look in the mirror. It’s validation that he didn’t have regular linemates 80 percent of the time
We agree it didn’t happen here
We agree he is doing more in Florida
We may disagree on if the team handled him well enough
That’s enough
