Still too early to judge how successful his vision is going to be but I like that he's priortizing hockey IQ. It's just my opinion but I personally like listening to the guy speak about how he thinks the game should be played and how it jives with management philosophy.
That said, Weisbrod and Feaster have a lot to prove given where we are at right now. I like what they've generally done when it comes to the draft but the current roster is a mess.

I would also add that he has a hockey background. I personally do not think he is ready and the flames have to wait to see if his drafting is as good as it seems. I believe he was lead scout when it came to Cervenka, and i think he dropped the ball.
When B Sutter left, Weisbrod seemed to be the only person he gave any glowing feed back for.
I would perfer that Weisbrod was learning from a more competent GM.
