Fair enough. I think this represents the difference in philosophy I have with Feaster right now in re: the way forward for the Flames. If he feels like he has to get guys under contract or the team is going in the wrong direction, we're on different wavelengths. That being said, everything he's put in public to date suggests that we are on different wavelengths so whatever.
