agreed here
Since the 2011 draft was all Tod Button, look at the 2012 draft and the returns for Iginla/Bouw..... ya I'm not impressed. Take him, please Vancouver. I hope he shapes the mould of your team.

Peter Mahr said the same thing.... he wasn't well liked around the league

Agreed. At the time Burke canned Feaster/Weisbrod, when asked about Weisbrod, he simply just said he didn't really know him cause he was never around. I don't think he was ever in Calgary at all.
