He was Sutter’s Assistant GM for a while, wasn’t he? I wonder what Darryl thinks of the guy.
Conroy worked with him too. I heard some interview with Conroy when he talked about how he learned things from Burke and Treliving. Maybe just my interpretation, but he seemed dismissive of Feaster.
I will give Feaster this. He stumbled his way into one or two good trades. Acquiring Russell for like a 5th was really good.
I also remember him explaining the Iginla and Bouwmeester trades and how it was important to have both older and younger prospects.I guess trying to legitimize Cundari and Hanowski. Yeah let’s go out and get some older prospects because we need some of that.
