If there is one thing that this management group has done well, I think it is the draft. While it is still far too early to say much of anything definitive, Feaster's picks from the past two draft practically all appear ahead of the curve in their development. I personally feel more confident about the 2011–12 Flames draft picks than almost any other prospects from the past seven or eight years.

The only real "off the board" pick was Jankowski last year. He was selected in the mid-first round, and in a somewhat weak draft-year. The circumstances were substantially different last year than this year, and it is beyond paranoid to wring one's hands about something that has not happened yet, especially in a field where the current management group has shown strength.
