Essentially Bouwmeester was traded for a 2nd round player not a 1st unless you believe Poirier was going to be picked in the first round by another team.
Well we have no idea where he would have gone had the Flames not picked him, so that is a total assumption on your part. According to Poirier, he had a thought that Montreal might have been interested in taking him at 25. Feaster clearly picked the player his staff had ranked the highest.
