Kind of funny that Feaster didn't want to trade the first rounder this year for Turris and ended up drafting a player a lot like him but years behind. Although in his defense it was looking like we would have a top 10 or higher pick at the time.

Using the power of hindsight it would have been a great move to trade our first for Turris last season then flipped Jokinen to the Preds for their first and still drafted Janko.

I think the Flames were pretty close to moving their first for either Turris, or Carter who we were linked to last year. Listening to Feaster Weisbroad wanted to trade the pick until he saw Janko play.
