Thing is, there has to be a demand for what you're selling. I don't think Treliving wanted to do anyone any favours, he called around and took the best deal possible. For all we know, the canucks offered a second and the next best offer was a 5th. The Flames did well by getting rid of a player that showed he isn't really at the NHL level and got a 2nd round pick in the process. The nucks gave a second round pick for a player that couldn't cut it on a rebuilding team. For all we know, Benning has done a terrible job.
