If you think Feaster wants to rebuild and ownership is preventing him, think again. Feaster hates being a seller. He is a buyer and is at his best buying. Feaster is the type to trade a 1st for someone like Shane O'Brien or the #4 pick for a 20 goal scorer. Feaster hated the fact he needed to trade Brad Richards, even though almost the entire hockey world saw that there was no way to keep Lecavalier, St. Louis, and Richards and have the depth to be competitive. Feaster wasn't lying when he said that if the Flames were looking for a guy to dismantle the team he wasn't the right man. Feaster doesn't make too many deals where a draft pick comes back his way. Heck he even gave up a 2nd when he traded Regehr, which was suppose to be a "sell" rather than a "buy" situation.
