“Yeah, he sure is,” Neal responded when asked whether Malkin was one of the 100 greatest players in NHL history. “Definitely one of the best players I’ve ever played with. His ability to do everything out there … he’s a big guy. He’s physical. He’s an unbelievable passer, and he can score goals. I feel like he’s one of the best power forwards to ever play the game.  It’s too bad. He’s a guy that I loved playing with and had a lot of fun with.” … “He’s 6-3, 210,” Neal said. “He’s a bull out there. He goes through people. He goes around people. He does it all.” … “He was a treat to play with. I really enjoyed it. We found instant chemistry. We liked playing together. I tried to get him the puck as much as I could. He got it back to me. It was a lot of fun.”
