Hudler was signed for about fair value at the time for the market, I think, and it may turn out (if he keeps playing like this) that he was a bit undervalued at that time and the Flames were the beneficiaries.
Feaster hasn't done a bad job, for me, and to the extent that "Going for it" rather than trading depreciating assets and re-building right away once he took over was an organizational decision rather than something he decided, I'd say he's done a very good job given the hand he was dealt.

It's all about what a player is worth to that particular team. Wideman might not be worth $5.5 million average to the Canucks, but he sure is for the Flames. Offense from the defense was an issue for this team.
Out of curiousity, if you think Wideman is worth a million less, what do you think Garrison is worth? Maybe $3 million average or so?
