I realize I’m likely in the minority with this thought however, you know how we often hear that the Oilers need a 3C? I’m of the thinking we need a 2C and a 3C. Sheahan is a good 4C and PKer, McDavid obviously a 1C. Drai seems a better winger and you can’t deny the chemistry he and McDavid have.
Nuge is not defensively responsible enough for the 2C role and without capable wingers he’s a more expensive (and more offensive) Yak. (Maybe not THAT extreme but... I just said it).

I disagree here - I think that Nuge has shown plenty of defensive responsibility over the years. I just think you need to put him in a position to be successful. A second line with fourth line wingers isn't going to cut it.

As I said, minority. I agree he’s been decent defensively in years past, perhaps this hand thing has a lot to do with it and it’s causing him to be over protective of it. I wouldn’t call Neal a 4th line winger though. Every other winger on the team not named Kassian, sure.
Perhaps it’s his hand. Perhaps it’s his wingers. Perhaps we’ll never know till he gets moved at the deadline next season when we’ve fallen out of the race due to depth and he’ll be an expiring UFA.
