Can someone supply a pic of this hot mom/girlfriend?

Damn McKenzie is good; his top 50 all go in the top 60. We should fire Button and bring in as our head scout.

Its not his actual opinions, all he does is poll scouts from around the league.

McKenzie's list is basically a scout poll. MetaScout.

Ya thanks, that's what the green text was there for. Still very impressive how accurate it is.

[Parallex]

Damnit! Was hoping he'd be an option for us.

Yeah my Gabryel kid, who I even mentioned might be a sleeper pick went nearly 30 spots higher!

My first pick, as many suspected, went 8 lower. Though I still think there might be something there.

Back to point, RE: Feaster, the expectation of some is that he should not be criticized, whereas I believe that respect should be earned by a GM by actual moves or decisions. And what, pray tell, is this metric for respect that posters require before they are allowed to level criticism at the Flames organization?

And what substance have you offered? The notion that people should not criticize decisions if they are somehow not imbued with what you deem to be worthy of respect?

And exactly who are you to critique others?

I never criticized—I made an observation that many people overreacted.

WTF! horrible!
Wtf???? (x lots)
Sigh... there is the typical Flames that I know and... hate.
F U feaster.
What a clown.
He couldn't wait for the 28th pick for that??? What a stupid pick!
Fire this idiot now WOW
Feaster is a ####ing idiot.
Who the #### is Emmile ####ing porrier
Shinkurak and Zyukov passed on for who? The ####.
C*cks*cker... they were doing so well... (ok...this one is funny)

The metric for respect is quality that lies somewhat north of the above responses. Also, I cannot see how anybody could view the above as actual criticism.

Anybody who takes the time to actually make a case for why it is a bad pick—other than it is a lower number from a compiled list they read somewhere—would be fine.

Time to go to work on my side of the world. You keep fighting the good fight.

Hoping for the Flames third round pick they grab Buchenivich or Yakimov.

[Ashasx]

Bjorkstrand is still available... super skilled RW on the Winterhawks.

He would be an absolute steal with our 3rd.

[devo22]

Laplante to PHX, Martin to COL, Diaby to NSH, Tambellini to NYR. Just 2 picks left now ... some good kids still available. Bjorkstrand f.e., pretty sure our scouts know him well

[Oling_Roachinen]

Kanzig. 159 PIM...

[JurassicTunga12]

Keegan Kanzig picked at 67

[Poe969]

Whom?

[Ashasx]

Kanzig is 6'7", 240 pounds... plays for the Victoria Royals.

[Ashasx]

Disappointed we didn't pick Bjorkstrand... Kanzig probably has less offensive upside than Chris Breen, but he looks a little more filled out.

[devo22]

Montreal takes Connor Crisp at 71. Probably needed another goalie prospect.
