I would neither praise nor condemn Feaster for the return on this deal. His hands were tied by Iginla essentially choosing one team and limiting returns while the respectful treatment of the player from the organization was accomplished in the NMC from back in the Sutter era. Feaster was essentially just the middle man on brokering Iggy's move to the Pens, but as a middle man his job was basically to have both sides come out looking good amd make it go smoothly. He did make a mess of that.

I'm just not sure what to praise Feaster over. The drafting seems better somewhat but the team stinks, they don't look like they're going to be better soon and the organization looks shambolic.

It's hard enough to cheer the Flames on with Igina, and Feaster isn't improving that.
