I actually wonder if he could be a 30 point guy with Ryan and Mangiapane.
They're miles better than the players he had around him down the Edmonton depth chart.
Having 5x more hits than Neal is encouraging, since the Flames were one of the least hitting teams in the league. If youre "dead weight" can at least help you in one category you've been deficient in, it adds something. Which is better than the nothing that Neal has added in his tenure here.
