I will be surprised if he becomes a top six like Vancouver thinks he will. I can't say that I'm shocked he asked for a trade either - there were numerous reports about attitude issues over the past few years.

We have younger guys that have passed him already and are getting call ups. I heard Ken Holland on FAN 960 this morning saying they traded some guys in their system to give them a chance somewhere else because they weren't going to do it in Detroit. That happened with Sven so Treliving cut his losses especially being forced with a trade request.
