Anton Slepyshev - why did we not burn a 7th round pick on him? I get the KHL thing and our depth at LW but if you can get 1st round talent in the 7th round, why not take a flyer? Too often this happens (Tanner Pearson goes undrafted two drafts then is taken in 1st round last year). We need scouts to push for players like Slepyshev so we get immense talent in round 7 instead of these guys going back into the draft. It's outside the box thinking which should suit Feaster fine as he's not adverse to this (see best players outside NHL - Cervenka and best goalies outside NHL - Ramo, Berra for examples).
