Well there's an important difference between Treliving's perspective and the fan perspective. Treliving has information, fans were speculating. If Treliving talks to the agent and has a strong sense that they want to test free agency then obviously you're more open to dealing the kid.
IMO what is paranoia is a fan assuming a kid who goes back to school for his 4th year will definitely test the UFA market. I still maintain that. Lots of proof against it including guys like Jankowski. My reaction was because I was assuming this was the logic for some of you.
However some people in this thread read the signs a lot better than I did. There was legitimate reason to be concerned given the Treliving hint at a signing and then Hickey's announcement as captain. I underplayed the concern, I'll admit it. I still think a few of the people in the thread were a bit presumptuous in assuming he 100% would test the market. But yeah, I'll admit I underplayed the concern. Good on a few of you for reading into the situation. Your paranoia was justified in this case :P
