I think he might end up being the best forward out of this draft.
6'4" 202 pounds according to ISS. Even with the Russian factor, the Flames would be very fortunate to draft this guy. Next Malkin/Ovechkin potential.

That clip is pretty impressive! It's rare for a guy that size to have the speed to completely clear a defender that had good positioning on him. Bit of a howler by Subban...
If we ended up picking him you can bet your bottom dollar the Flames would have had lengthy interviews with him before hand & there would assurances he would come over. Safe to say Feaster's job isn't exactly secure, and his future going forward probably hinges on this draft. He won't take another silly risk without doing due diligence.
