With many other solid Feaster-era prospects coming through the pipeline I think this franchise has a solid base to build from.

Not sure I would be give Jay Feaster the
Auto Thanks for a few of those players (Wideman, Jones, Smid, Baertschi etc.) I don't think he went off the board to get Monahan at 6.
I'm really left with the thought of his immaturity (his recent tweets), and doing something for the sake of doing something. I think he was over his head in many ways and did the best he could, but sure let us know every time.
He's also benefitted from luck in that we don't have RoR or Brad Richards on this team.
