My second quote was in response to you bringing that up in the first place, what is going on lol

Still, 7th would be more than enough for a guy that got waived
Sometimes I just get this vibe that Feaster is a huge sucker, no negotiating skills whatsoever

Just no point in pointing out when people restate things you've already posted. We aren't getting trophies for posts here. Are we?
One of the Best contract negotiator in the NHL IMO. Look at our contracts compared to others.

I'm definitely considering driving 6 hrs to picket outside Feasters house because of all the 5th round picks were losing.. What's there to be sarcastic about
?

Thank goodness for that. And thank goodness that with the only fifth round pick we're going to have for the next 10-12 years, we picked a pretty good player this year.

Also should be mentioned that we got a pick for Henrik Karlsson last year despite him being on waivers beforehand.

Don't like this move but the Flames needed a defenceman. I would have preferred Jeff Schultz as a 6/7 guy instead but whatever.
Kris Russel has 364 NHL games and also has some potential. Like the Galiardi move, it will not make the team better but it also will not hurt long term. Hopefully this means the end of Smith or Butler or even both.
Brodie, Wideman, Giordano, Butler, Russel, Smith, Cundari, Breen
Gotta get rid of one or two of those guys, bring in an experienced stay at home defenceman. Also I think Wotherspoon and Ramage should be on the Heat no matter what.
Jay Feaster has made the transition from making moves that will screw up the Flames for years to come to making moves that will make no difference whatsoever. Way to go Jay! You are getting better!

Smith will probably see waivers and be sent down, Breen will be kept down. The Flames will probably not be in contention down the stretch, and will trade away guys at the deadline, making room for guys like Breen, Cundari, Wotherspoon and Ramage to try and make an impression, much like Carson this year got that opportunity.

Yup, I could see that. I found it odd that Breen didn't get a look late last season when just about all of the prospects were making their NHL debut.
He would have but he was hurt. I'd like to see Cundari start the year with the big club.

Butler - Russel would be a solid bottom pairing.
Gio - Brodie
Wideman - ??????
Butler - Russel
Still need a top-4 D
Where is the defense?
Adding the inexperience goalies, 1st overall is ours to lose

You've forgotten Shane O'Brien. Not surprisingly, given he's new. If I'm writing the D depth chart:
-Gio
-Wideman
-Brodie
-Russell
-SOB
-Butler
-Cundari
-Breen
...

We do. I'm hoping Cundari can continue his development and slot into that spot this year.

I hope Edmonton picks him up, just so that they can have half of their top 6 defencemen named Schultz.
