Feaster has a lot more to prove before he can be absolved of narrowly avoiding catastrophe with Richards and ROR. The draft was one step in a positive direction, let's see what happens during free agency. I like the Galiardi and Knight pickups, and the Jones trade was meh (which for Feaster is a step up, at least). Already I'm a bit worried by the Lecavalier rumors that Flames brass are going to settle back into their old ways of trying to cut corners with this rebuild. Time will tell.
I do like that the team is getting younger and tougher to play against. If we're going to lose we might as well make it difficult for teams to walk out of the dome with those 2 points. Nothing was worse than watching a team of overpaid geezers and creampuffs mail it in on a nightly basis.
