Feaster just has an "easy mark" vibe IMO, but that's what happens when you have a lawyer gauging hockey talent.

People were willing to buy out Bouwmeester just 5 months earlier. And he still had term left on his contract with a $6.5 million dollar cap hit.
That was not an easy contract to move.
Getting a 1st, Cundari (looked good here), and Berra (impressed at the World Championships) was a decent return.
