Better than nothing I guess but he just didn't understand it in Montreal and Arizona thought they were the ones to get him to buy in but he couldnt stay at center there either. I think everyone has come to terms that he is a decent winger but just doesn't have the two way game necessary for playing center in the NHL.

That 30 goal season came in the year when the Habs didn't make the playoffs because Price was hurt early on. Had the Habs been fighting for a playoff spot, Chucky would have been pushed to the wing eventually but since the season was over the minute Price went down, they gave Chucky the entire year as practice. He wasn't "bad" and the following year he actually showed some improvement but then got injured and ever since the injury never was able to show that pace ever again.

He's a sniper winger. That's where the team will get the most out of him. Get Gino to feed him passes and he may even get to 30 again but put him at center........yeah he may score 20 if your lucky but he'll be responsible for 40 against.......

I have to assume that Galchenyuk is a bigger raw talent than Neal. If Neal got 40 goals, then Galchenyuk should be able to get 40 as well.

this would assume actual coaching and the ability to be flexible and change......in other words. Don't expect it from Sullivan.

Lots of players with raw talent out there. Its the whole package that you need. I don't think Galchenyuk has enough talent to score to get 40 on talent alone.

However there are also players who didn't have the whole package and still scored an insane amount of goals. Look at Brett Hull. Guy couldn't do anything other than shoot the puck.

Honestly, Brett Hull was probably the most one-dimensional player I've ever seen. The guy wasn't a great skater, he didn't have much agility or speed. Couldn't stick handle or protect the puck away from opposing players. He wasn't great defensively either. Just had an extremely accurate release which put him 4th all time. He really wasn't as good as his father.
