Besides Monahan and Gaudreau nothing is for sure on Feaster's list.
Not to mention Sutter was picking on the back half of the first half, Feaster was doing lottery picks. He really couldn't have screwed up the Monahan even if he tried.
In all Button for all the hate he used to get has figured it out as he's the common denominator under both GMs. I'm glad he has, we need couple more gems.

So it was Button who was holding Sutter back and then he figured it out? He went from drafting big slow and dumb to small and skilled once he figured it out?
There is no common denominator, one guy got one pick in 8 years after the 1st round, the other guy is likely to get 2-4 in 2 years. The Sutter years were dark years in terms of drafting.
Thank god Feaster was willing to listen to the people who knew how to scout hockey players, Sutter was rarely if ever willing to do that.
