While that's true, I think Feaster deserves credit for just letting Button and staff do their thing and trusting in him. The Gaudreau story of Button not sure where to draft him and asking Feaster to give him leeway to go for him when they thought it was appropriate speaks to that.
Feaster's gets kudos for staying out of Tod Button's way. We've heard several times in the past that Sutter wasn't focusing on the right things when it comes to drafting(which eventually changed). Sutter was too obsessed with size, Chucko, Pelech, Nemisz.
