This team was on the downward spiral, so I won't blame him at all for the team getting worse year by year. All I'm saying, and all I have been trying to say in each and every post I've made in this thread, is that Feaster had done a good job of getting the rebuild on the right track when he was allowed to do so.
Fair enough. I still don't think he deserves credit for it though. It was entirely circumstance not some proactive smart decision. I don't think he really did anything special either. Traded Iginla and Jbo for pretty mediocore returns. Let his scouts make some picks which the jury is still out on. Fired.
