Don't mean to continue with the derailment (but it is July, so what the heck), but I do agree with Roof-Daddy on this one. Not to defend Feaster, but I don't recall any discussion that an offer sheet wouldn't be effective, at the time ROR was sitting out. Only afterwards did the story make the rounds that he then would need to go on waivers. Given the ambiguity of the situation, I can't see it going down that the Flames (or the other reported pursuers) would lose the picks and the player. Again, just opinion.
I would be interested in seeing any posts or published stories questioning whether ROR would go on waivers before the offer was made.
