13. Arnold - Sutter
14. Knight - Feaster (sign as a FA)
15. Ferland - Sutter

For having the job for only 1255 days he managed to restock our system to where we have incredible depth. That was pretty impressive given the scorched earth Sutter left behind as he continued to try and build a team around Iginla when his best-before date had expired. When you look at our future and see it looking so bright, remember to thank Jay Feaster. He was integral in restocking the system.
You do realize Feaster had higher picks and a surplus of them because of our situation at the time. Apples and oranges. Like it was said before if we would have had a more competent GM during those years we would likely be further ahead in our rebuild.
