Hockey gurus say whoever gets the best player wins the trade, albeit metered slightly in a salary-cap era. Neal can't get it done with maybe 2 of the Top 5 talent on the front end, Looch gets them another round with Johnny & Mony, for Pete's sake.
You capital city boys miss the part about the 3rd rounder?? And who just a few of them were?? I think something like 30% of all 3rd round picks play steady minutes in the show, or hey the pick can be used to sweeten a deal to rid oneself of an undesirable contract. You know........... |
Yes the third rounder part......where if Neal is too good, flames get a 3rd rounder.
