Maybe so. But still it's hard to see how he wouldn't score those goals switching to a Flames jersey. Standing infront of the net and shooting / tipping pucks. Does nothing else of value of course.
The real culprit here is Treliving. Signing a UFA to a major deal only having to trade him for one of the worst contracts in the league a year later is inexcusable. Or should be. But it seems that the whole debacle has centered around Lucic vs. Neal instead.
