Secondly, there is no reason to think that the Flames targeted Agostino and Hanowski - as they think they're better prospects than those quoted above - or that they can get a better prospect at the tail end of the first this year than those players.
To me, if the Bruins rumors were correct, Feaster did a much better job getting this Pitt deal, even if the prospects seem lesser, because of the actual 1st versus the conditional 1st.
