I just thought this might be interesting to revisit now that it is two years later, even though it seems like Feaster isn't really the Flames drafting guy. Let's hope Weisbrod is a better prognosticator than his boss:

I'm not sure I would even want Feaster choosing the scouting staff, who was his head scout in Tampa anyway? Whoever it was, they should stay home. His only notable pick in six years (not counting Mr. Stamkos) was Paul Ranger, a late-round late-bloomer long-shot.
