This couldn't be further from the truth. Read the article that DionTheDman posted. Flames scouts were VERY high on Gaudreau, and were all VERY excited about his NHL potential for a long time before the 2011 draft. Feaster furthermore deserves a lot of credit for wisely deferring to his soucts, and also for giving Button a ton of latitude with this pick to ensure that they got him.
It might be a little early yet, but this is developing into what should be considered a well executed home run.
