The timing of hiring Burke, firing Feaster and hiring BT was exquisite. Feaster did leave the Flames with a lot of great pieces but you won't find many people who would have been confident with him at the helm going forward. Hard to imagine a management transition that could have gone any better. With benefit of hindsight, Feaster deserves the praise he is getting. And he has Brad Richards and the Avalanche management to thank for making the decisions they did.
