I've read alot of people making comments to the effect of, "At least drafting has improved with Feaster...".
So far I am not seeing an improvement in drafting. While it is true that the flames have had more rookies on the roster in recent years, it appears that is only becuase management has opened up spots to "try out" young players. I will be convinced that drafting has improved when some impact players start to produce in the NHL. Baerschi seems like the real deal and falls into the impact player category but he appears to be the only one.
You can talk all day about gaudreau, jankowski, reinheart ect, but until they make it to the nhl and start contributing, It's to early to give feaster credit for improving the flames drafting.
