Here's what bugs me about the ROR situation. Peole keep thinking Feaster is an idiot for possibly giving up a 1st and a 3rd for nothing..... DO you really think the NHL would allow that to happen to a team?? Not a fricken chance. One of two things would have happened if Colorado didn't match. If they held it up that he would have to go through waivers, the Flames would have gotten a mulligan and withdraw the offer, or they would have ruled that the RFA negotiation list trades with the player and no waivers required. In no way would the NHL allow a black mark like that, and see the Flames lose the player and their picks for nothing. Not a chance.
