Vanflyer Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 ......well it certainly looks like Pitts got the better of that trade thus far. (Honrnqvist + Spaling for Neal). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Hornquist alone is the better player. With none of the douchebaggery. Time will tell if Crosby and malkins meltdowns rub off on him or does it go the other way around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hf101 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Neal with a hat trick in a win tonight over the Blackhawks. Nashville 5 -0 - 2 under Laviolette. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B21 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Neal with a hat trick in a win tonight over the Blackhawks. Nashville 5 -0 - 2 under Laviolette. How did he score a hattie when Crosby and Malkin weren't there to set him up? Man, I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radoran Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 How did he score a hattie when Crosby and Malkin weren't there to set him up? Man, I'm confused. And he hasn't even been suspended yet! Maybe it is just a Pens thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B21 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 And he hasn't even been suspended yet! Maybe it is just a Pens thing? There's that league bias against the B&G, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanflyer Posted October 24, 2014 Author Share Posted October 24, 2014 Nashville 5 -0 - 2 under Laviolette. Rinne has had a big say in that as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 How did he score a hattie when Crosby and Malkin weren't there to set him up? Man, I'm confused. Me too. And how come he isn't such a douchebag in nashville...yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polaris922 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Me too. And how come he isn't such a douchebag in nashville...yet?Couple ideas... First, the season is young and he's always saved it for late season. Second, he was warned about it, did it again and was traded to Nashville for it. Maybe he learned something?

jammer2 Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I watched a period and a half of the Nashville game last night, long enough to see Neal score a natural hat-trick. Horny is the real deal also, but Neal looked electric last night, and his new linemates Ribero and P.Forsberg are no slouches either. I expect that line to light it up this year. Not as much as Horny and Sid will....AND Spaling is one of the best defensive forwards in the game, not even close to a throw in.....BUT...this trade looks a whole lot closer to me after I saw that stunning offensive display last night.

hf101 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Apparently the Penguins ruined the James Neal bobblehead night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B21 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Me too. And how come he isn't such a douchebag in nashville...yet? For the same reason(s) Downie hasn't been a dirty POS in the 'Burgh....yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 @B21 Don't look now, but Downies PIMS have more than doubled from his stint in Philly or Colorado. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And there is the thing about Neal. In the game against the Pens last night, you could hardly tell he was on the ice. He'll do okay in Nashville with Laviolette on the bench, he would have been a disaster of Trots was still there. I think the Pred's will try to open up a little more.

jammer2 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I think the Pred's will try to open up a little more. Yep, and they have the defense and goaltending to allow them to open things up and play Lavi's style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B21 Posted October 27, 2014 Share Posted October 27, 2014 @B21 Don't look now, but Downies PIMS have more than doubled from his stint in Philly or Colorado. You mean the PIM currently skewed by a fighting major and his being chosen twice in one game to serve a 'Too Many Men' penalty? PIM doesn't not a dirty player, make. Dumb, maybe. But I think you're smart enough to figure out what I'm getting at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
