Thanks Tod for your endless success stories at the draft.
Button when heavily relied upon for the 2011 draft, had one of the best drafts in the last couple of decades for the flames. (Sven, Granlund, Wotherspoon, Gaudreau and Brossiant.) It was pretty much his draft, unless you think Feaster had good input.

Its also been noted that Sutter did his own thing for first picks when he was in charge and Button took over for latter picks. Don't see to many first round picks working out, but some of the latter picks are going to. (Brodie, Arnold, Reinhart ect)

He also seems to be following Weisbrod's criteria and doing a good job. Not sure why the hate anymore?
