Personal trainers hate him!!!!!!!!That headline reads like something from The Onion
Personal trainers hate him!!!!!!!!
But that was from 2014, I bet he’s regressed like his hairline
I hope he can get 50 points this year. And on another note if he does anyone have an idea how we would fit him and Tkachuk + a new goalie in under the cap?

At this point Neal still has value, he scores 20+ every season. But that value is gonna quickly evaporate unless he gets going. That said it be a risk to trade a guy who can snipe like that. I just don't see a fit I guess. If he's not playing top 6 or top PP minutes, our cap can be used elsewhere.
Sure, a guy capable of scoring 20 goals every year is worthless. He easily has value to many teams that are looking for a goal scorer.No, he doesn't.
Vegas might want him back. They didn't want to lose him in the first place, they aren't doing so hot right now, and Neal is comfortable there.At this point Neal still has value, he scores 20+ every season.

To be honest, I don't think the Flames really need Neal. He was originally brought in to play RW on Mony's line but Lindy has pretty well locked that spot up. The second plan option was to have him play RW on Back's line. Let me think... who's playing there now??
There's no longer a spot for him on the 1st and 2nd lines and we really don't need a 3rd or 4th line $5.2m right wing for the next 5 years.
I give him til New Years. If he only has 10 pts or less... try to trade him to Vegas. Its not like we gave up draft choices or players to sign him.$5.75m actually.
I am one for waiting to see him break out of this slump because I know he can/will, but I still get shocked at the amount he is getting paid.

Like brouwer? He will have no value by the end of the year. He has no place on the team, simple as that.
I'll wait until the season is over and we've had a lengthy and successful Cup run.
It would be interesting to see if we could upgrade our lineup in other ways, but if his value at this point is only a mid pick, might as well keep him for scoring depth. It would just suck to get saddled with a useless contract if he doesn't get going. Hopefully more time with Ryan and they start to gel. At this point, I'd try Janko again, he was a beast last game.
If he's still a 15-20 point player by the deadline I would absolutely take a mid-round pick for him just to clear up salary for the contracts we're gonna have to hand out this offseason.
