I still prefer Neal. I think he can get 60-65 pts in a full season, (close to Eberle), but with Hits as a category it tips it in Neal's favour.
Not to mention Neal will likely have LW eligibility, which is a big advantage over Eberle's RW.
Well, since Neal's value has dropped considerably by getting traded to Nashville, I have no problem shopping him now, lol. Who would you rather have on your team with the scoring settings in sig? Neal or Eberle?

I agree with jcairns. I think you need to wait and see what Neal is in Nashville, as we aren't sure yet. At worst he puts up 50-60 points which means you could still probably trade him for Eberle as long as you sweeten the pot a bit with a draft pick or something. He will likely post 60-65 as jcairns states, but there's still a chance he could do better, and until we know for sure, I don't think it's worth moving him. In addition, he will still outhit Eberle by a significant margin, which is worth something in your league.
Gosh... I don't know.
I've really soured on James Neal. He was the perfect compliment in Pittsburgh.
I think I prefer Eberle here.
Neal will be fine and should outpoint Eberle
Close...but I remember Neal pre Pitt. Welcome back IMO...only I suspect worse than in Dallas. Give me Eberle.
With those cats I think it will be close. I would still keep Neal, but Eberle could suprise too. Can you get Neal for Ebs with Neal's value right now?
