Can't stand them
Your point stands but they signed Neal before the 18-19 season.

A reason people were not fans of that Neal signing was because it used up the Flames cap space when Tkachuk was a pending RFA and Stone was a pending UFA that people knew the Flames would be interested in.

But as per usual Treliving needed to make sure Flames had no cap space by July 5th of every offseason.
