I think it was a shrewd move by Feaster.

I really respect you as a poster, but the leading thread title and the three poll choices that all make the assumption that Feaster was wrong are way off base.
the poll options were provided by one of our friendly neighbourhood mods not me

also very doubtful this sees a courtroom... this goes to a mediator. The mediator could rule any way. Case and point the Kovalchuk contract that was ruled invalid because it violated the spirit of the salary cap, not because anything in the CBA prevented it.
