Feaster: Pure Class

Jay Feaster did not bicker, complain, or have a messy break-up with thte Lightning organization. Instead, he sat through a tumultuous 2-3 months of tradings, signings, and ultimate change of direction for the Tampa Bay franchise, aware that his role was diminishing and his time was coming to an end.

His departure from the team, and his respectful comments afterward are reflective of how much he still cares for the wellbeing of the organization and its members. It's rare that we see a GM look out for a team before he leaves it. Props to him. He was able to recognize when the team needed a new direction, and was man enough to admit he needed to quit.
