If you look I carefully worded that so it couldn't be misconstrued as something I would have said at the deadline just after the pick. So nice try but not quite.
I still don't think Nyquist or Tatar will be franchise players but looking at what I feel the Flames ultimately got I would have taken the Wings offer. If you really read my post I'm referring to who I think was the players the Flames ultimately got which was Klimchuk (certainly not a franchise player) and the 2nd (I don't care what anyone says I feel Poirier would have still been a Flame at 28). If we are looking at a projected 40+ pick in Klimchuk and another 2nd rounder I would have probably taken the two Wings players but that's hindsight as I said and I wasn't even bashing Feaster in that post as I don't feel this is something to get overly worked up about due to the fact the Wings players surprised and the Flames prospects used with the picks haven't played yet.
