With Feaster signing O'Reilly we are already near the bottom 1/3 into the season, and probably would finish near the bottom with him in the lineup for the remainder of the season. So theoretically the O'Reilly RFA signing would have been worse than the Kessel deal.

Even if the Flames were to end up with the "top five" pick everyone who hated the signing assumed, I would really like to know how it is "theoretically" worse to give up the #5 and #65 picks than to give up the #2, #9 and #32 picks.
