I have had a tough time with the GM poll.

-I loved what Sutter did early as a GM, hated what he did late.
-Thought Feaster did well in some areas, but didn't like the Iginla and Bouwmeester deals 100% (hated the over selling)
-Treliving hasn't been here long enough.
-I liked Button but the results just weren't there
-Al Coates was a great guy, but was GM when the Flames fell apart (economics)

tough choices.

Really hope Treliving gives Fletcher a run in three years though.

Not much to choose from. Went with Feaster simply because so many players in current roster came from his regime. Agree with Bingo on the Iginla and Bouwmeester trades. The 1st round picks were nice but the C level prospects were highly disappointing. Wish he had just taken all draft picks.

Can't vote for Treliving with not enough of a track record.

Burke gets consideration simply for trading Berra for a 2nd round pick.

Three way race between Coates, Feaster and Treliving. All have their pros and cons. Today decided to go with Feaster ashe had a big part in the foundation of the team we currently have. Trevliving at this time next year could potentially be the choice.

I voted Treliving as he's had good early success. I think he has all the tools to be good GM and his learned his trade the right way.

As for Feaster, I think he went off the track early with the Regehr trade and never improved. He ended up with some high draft picks but that's what happens when you're incompetent at building a team otherwise.
