He was a clown and had to go, but if he’d just drafted any of Tom Wilson, Teuvo Teravainen, Vasilevskiy, or Hertl at 14 instead trading down to make his stupid Jankowksi pick, he probably doesn’t get the axe from Burke and he gets to rebuild the team instead of Treliving.
There’s a timeline where that happened.

I don't really think Feaster had much to do with Gaudreau (or any other pick outside the first round). His fingerprints were all over Jankowski's pick though.
And 2011 is kind of horrific to think about in hindsight. He drafted Baertschi, but not Miller or Oleksiak. Granlund, but not Nieto or Edmundson. And, dammit, Kucherov was taken one freakin place after Wotherspoon.
