And with the "young guys stepping into the lineup", I hardly talked about Giordano, Brodie and Backlund who were all established NHL players already. Monahan, Colborne, Byron, Wotherspoon, Granlund, Sven, Billins, Agostino, Hanowski, Knight, Cundari ... all brought in by Feaster.

Really? Giordano I'll give you... but really?
As for the rest... I bolded guys I will give Feaster credit for..... notably that Erixon trade was a big win, and I have already said that in the previous 2 posts I made. Monahan sure, a 6th round pick in a deep draft was a pretty easy choice, but sure its still a great pick. Byron is a great move, though Regehr did net three 2nd round picks. But Byron is a fun player to cheer for, for sure. Colburne I won't comment on because I still think that has Burke's finger prints all over it, but thats discussion isn't worth the energy. Billins, Knight and Cundari.... we'll see, maybe you are a lot higher on those 3 then I am.
