How much blow back was there for Blake Wheeler (5th pick overall - compensation 35th pick who is now thrilled to be playing in Winnipeg),Umberger Vancouver 16th pick overall) Jarret Stoll and Lombardi who actual screwed the team drafting them even worse.

I think you just proved that sometimes a player simply doesn't want to play for the team they are drafted by. He didn't break any rules, but if he makes the Rangers team out of camp, he can be expected to be hear a chorus of boos the first time he comes to Calgary. If he makes it in a couple of years instead, most people will have forgotten.
