I still hope Feaster uses all 3 picks to draft players, but i just can't see that happening from what he has said in past interviews.

Agreed.
If you go and look at recent draft history, the one thing that is very apparent? Outside of the top 10 (or even top 5), the NHL draft is a complete crapshoot.
Yes, you could end up with a Mike Green at 29th overall, or you could end up with a Leland Irving at 26, a Brian Boyle at 26, an Eric Fehr at 18, an Anthony Stewart at 25, a Corey Perry at 28, a Chet Pickard at 18, a Jordan Eberle at 22, a Rob Schremp at 25
The NHL draft is riddled with busts. There are no guarantees.
