Yeah haha, like I said, I'm with you on that. Your inital post made it seem like signing Cervenka was a big blunder but if you're saying Feaster's continued oversell job is one of his worst features then I'm with you on that.

Overselling Cervenka, Berra. Almost making it impossible for a guy like Jankowski to just be left alone to developed, overstating his draft list by saying Monahan, Poirier, Kklimchuk were all in their top 10(?). It's fine if a GM thinks he got a steal but just shut up about it, don't put that pressure on the players needlessly.
