I think the odds of a 2nd round pick making the NHL is between 1 in 4 to 1 in 5 and the odds that a 2nd round pick becomes a solid top 9 player or top 4 defenseman is even worse.

So ya I'm concerned over the unnecessary waste of a draft pick because I believe in building through the draft and I believe the Flames shouldn't be trading away draft picks for immediate help at this time.
So you as a casual FAN have a better grasp on the situation than the the professional GM? I guess they better fire Feaster and hire you
