These trades are like a car accident in progress, slown down 100 times and playing out like a don't-drink-and-drive commercial.
For whatever reason, and I have plenty of theories, Feaster is not able to obtain as valuable prospects in his trades compared to what other GM's are able to accomplish, this year and years past as comparables.
Flames fans (since 1986 in my case) just have to watch this play out. I've bought no tickets this year and the only game I attended was painful to watch.
I have no confidence in Feaster's ability to negotiate a deal which includes surplus value, nor in his hockey sense. I also think that as long as Ken King has any influence in hockey decisions (which includes hiring a GM), he's got to be pushed aside. It is time.
