No, opinions can be stupid, contrary to popular opinion.
He has proven that he can score 40 goals --> 40 goal scorer.
Anyways, Jack Edwards is a tool.
.................
Neal has scored 40 goals this year. The way the original poster stated it was that he's a 40 goal scorer which means he is consistently. He's not, he never has. He scored 40 this year. He tried to use it to say "Oh no he should never fight Lucic because he's a 40 goal scorer". Like he's some offensive powerhouse that drops 40 every year. That's what is implied when you call Neal a 40 goal scorer.
I give the nod to Neal. Also, why would Neal fight Lucic? He would get his butt handed to him. Do you all get on Chara because every time he fights he fights someone smaller?
then don't yap to players who will pull your card...

There was absolutely nothing wrong or false about what he said regardless of what you think he was implying.

Wouldn't it be easier to read the actual words rather than worry about looking for implications?
Not sure if you're sarcastic, but if not, good on you. I doubt many others feel the same way as you do. It's always "you agitator/ player who made us mad should fight our toughest player" Then you have some Bruins fans who think their agitators shouldn't have to fight anyone.
Gotta love how Edwards brings size into this, but he doesn't seem to give credit to smaller players who fight bigger Bruins players.
And on a last note. To call Neal a 40 goal scorer isn't correct. He's done it once. Is Brian Gionta a 40 goal scorer ? Nope.
Ference seems to be the only Bruin who gets stuck fighting people not in his weight class, or just a better fighter overall.
well, hard to blame him for that, anyone have an idea what he did to get Lucic after him?
ference can hold his own, but I give the nod to Neal there, didn't realize neal was that big though
I think it's a combination of Neal being big and Ference being tiny, I don't think I've seen the guy go with anyone who wasn't at least 2-3 inches taller than him.
This is ridiculous and quite frankly not worth the time. He didn't imply anything he flat out said it; 40 goal scorer.
After hearing a million times on these boards how Lucic is a 30 goal scorer(after doing it once), you're nitpicking about neal? He scored 40 goals, doesn't matter if it's once, twice, or whatever, he did it AND as a matter of fact, it is this year. Call it a hot streak or fluke or whatever you want to, but the FACT he scored 40 this year is the exact reason why he shouldn't risk injury, he's very important to the pens right now, anamoly or not.

I find it hard to not label him a 40 goal scorer, WHEN HE JUST SCORED 40 GOALS!!! As of right now he's a 40 goal man, whether or not he becomes a consistent 40 goal scorer remains to be seen. But as of right now he is.
LOL at people acting like Neal is massive or something. The guy is average NHL size. The majority of players are bigger than Ference, no big deal. Also big LOL at Edwards. What ****ing fight was he watching? boggles my mind how much of a homer he is.
Well I guess alot of players have to keep their mouths shut since they don't fight lol.
great post!
every team has players that chirp, clearly neal crossed a line or did something more than usual because four guys on the Bruins challenged him. it's not that hard to imagine, even the broadcasters hinted that something must of happened that they were not aware of to get that many guys pissed off at him.
