I personally hope Erixon fails utterly and completely as an NHL player. It would give me great satisfaction to see him scurry back to Sweden like the little weasel he is. This thing was planned from the start, and I wish there were actually repercussions for players who pull garbage like this.
DIAF, Erixon.

I think the team that redraft said player should surrender their same round pick the next year.
So if Flames threw Tim back and he went in the first round to TO, we would get TO's 2012 first.
That would give the team losing the player more bargaining power.
That said, Feaster did a great job. I am well on my way to eating my words regarding how much he would suck.
