However when a team is looking at giving up valuable assets in a transaction for that player they should know he played a couple of games and know to ensure that wouldn't be an issue. Clearly that wasn't done and wether this was simpy out of haste to be first to make an offer or simply poor overall review of the details someone messed up big time within the Flames organization.
The only way I can see the Feaster and Co. coming out of this clean is if necessary paperwork was not done or indicated by the ROR party when he went to Europe if they needed such paperwork to file to the league.

Rayan O Rayli played 2 games in the KHL....obvious subterfuge IMO....player and his agent are the Dbags.
Feaster isn't my fav by any means but the whole thing stinks from the player's side IMO.
