Sutter got things started making this organization completely inept but Feaster is dramatically accelerated that process. This team is going to be very very bad for a long time.

Considering all three rumored offers were poor I think the market just wasnt there. Same as with Nash last year, teams just are not willing to move top prospects any more.
They knew the Flames had limited offers and took advantage of that.
As an aside does anyone think Feaster was the sacrifical lamb here... by all accounts King, Edwards, Weisbrod were all heavily involved in the deal but it will Forever go down as Feaster who traded Iginla.
Would not be at all surprised if this was Howson like situation and a new GM is brought in with a clean slate in the offseason.
