Wish Feaster would shut up...sounding very Kevin Lowe-ish.

This loophole with NCAA players should have been closed with the new CBA - it might be frowned down on in the hockey fraternity but kids these days don't care...if they know they have the right to choose their team more and more of them are going to be me-first and do it. It's just a byproduct of the general attitude of the millenials (is that what they call them now?).

Weisbrod and the Flames love drafting their NCAA guys and hopefully they stop doing this - in 10 years from now NCAA guys may have a similar reputation to Russian players now - a stigma that keeps teams from spending valuable picks on a guy who is a flight risk.

It's not a good trend.
