Pretty sure Button and his staff are fully capable of running the draft as they did in 2011 which was arguably the Flames best in some time. I'm pretty confident the firings were done at that time because Burke didn't want Feaster handling the trade deadline or Weisbrod influencing the 2014 draft. If Burke didn't have confidence in and intended to fire them why would he continue to let them make key personnel decisions for the rest of the season?
