It is purely a numbers game and while Treliving is figuring out what to do with the roster, he made the safe play which does not involve losing anyone.
Edit: And when I say 4th liner at best, I am not knocking his game.... he played very well in that role and our 4th line was one of the most consistent. He will be back once the roster is figured out.

I think having a quality 4th line is very valuable in the NHL. Him being a good fit there is a positive for this club.
Ian also not sure what assets we would have to risk. Bollig, Raymond, Smid, Ramo, Hiller, Ortio all easily clear waivers right now or help us out by being claimed.
