But now that Tre is on a roll, maybe he can package up Brodie and a first for Brent Seabrook. He should strike while his irons are still hot. He knows a deal when he sees one. He sure does.
It's probably a bad trade, especially given Lucic's contract, but I think the majority of Oiler fans are looking at Neal on what he could be, not what he was last year. If his game doesn't come around, what you can expect, for those who use the advanced stats anyway, is far and away the worst player on the team, and points wise, a guy who managed to put up even less points than Lucic. Player to player, meh, just that contract. I sure hope part of the deal is that Calgary doesn't have to protect him....
