i think sometimes we can be a bit over assuming that other GMs are dumb, as there aren't many things feaster says that a lot of fans aren't already thinking, so not sure he's letting any "secrets" out or anything.
it's funny, listening to both sutter/feaster, always made me feel a bit better as a fan, despite their opposite ends of the spectrum approach to how they discussed things with the media/fans.

How I would answer the questions:
Cammalleri : if there was no interest, or I wanted to motivate him, I'd tell him in person. Not sure why players always have to be called out in the media on June 28..... kind of weird. You'd think you can communicate more in person.
In an interview, I'd say : "yeah, we get a few calls about Mike.... he's one of our best players. However, we are a rebuilding team, nobody is untouchable"
Johnny : "yeah, we get some calls..... he's one of the best players in the NCAA. But, we have a plan for him and there is a great opportunity here when he is ready to come to Calgary"
Lecavlier : "I don't make it my business to talk about other team's players who are under contract. If Lecavlier gets bought out, there will be a lot of teams interested in him."
