    Default James Neal over/under 30 goals (playing with McDavid)

    What do folks here say with Neal practicing on the top line with McDavid?



    & before Neal is completely overlooked, let’s remember he’s been an effective pure goal scorer 10 out of his 11 NHL seasons. Is it fair to say last season was an outlier or was it enough to assume he’s hit a cliff?

    Let’s also remember Maroon scored 27 goals alongside McDavid and he’s not even half the goal scorer Neal is. Elliotte Friedman mentioned the other day that McDavid campaigned to management for the Neal acquisition, and I honestly don’t see who else they’d put alongside him as an every game line mate considering how thin the Oilers are at wing. So it’s fair to say Neal will for the most part be paired with McDavid.

    Neal won't be on PP1 so I am going with UNDER 30...but over 22.

    Under 30. He needs to stay healthy, locked in with McDavid, get a lot of power play time and prove that he didn't fall off a cliff. Too many things need to go right for 30.

    He is on PP1. Played 3:42 on the PP - the same as McDavid, Draisaitl & Jurco - in the Oilers 2nd last exhibition game before they sat out the final game.

    Jurco is out which means there’s virtually 0 chance the Oilers can even think about not using Neal.

    You're overreacting to preseason line combos. We see it here every year. It's a common pitfall.

    PP Unit 1 is McDavid, Draisaitl, RNH, Chiasson, Klefbom...expect this unit to play 90+ seconds of most PPs.

    Under 30.

    I expect something in the 18-22 goals range, if healthy. I'd be quite happy if he exceeded my projection.
