I on the other hand, have evidence that this was a rule (disputed or not) that could have cost this team their 1st and 3rd round pick (the only two picks they have in the first 3 rounds) and then some and that the Flames sumbitted an offer sheet without bringing any public inquiry or attention to this potentially disasterous exemption. I also know that ROR's agent has been quoted as saying he had no idea about the rule which would directly dispute Feasters statement where he claims to have spoken with the players representation. I would like to add that in this statement he never once said that he contacted the NHL about this issue before the submission of this offer sheet.
Using the evidence I provided above, I have come to the conclusion that anyone who believes this LAWYER should have a job leading an NHL team after this potential debacle that would have been widely regartted as the worst move in hockey histroy, is bats*** crazy.

I heard the Canucks sent an offersheet as well.
I'm actually curious as to which GMs actually sent offer sheets
That is different from thinking about an offer as an offer sheet would require doing your due diligence (which Feaster failed to do)
I would like to know what other GM didn't do their due diligence as well.
