Or do the management think this is all on the players?

Nah, management is going to ride out this coaching staff for the season. They recognize we're not contenders, but also realize that, because of how crappy our division is, we've got a shot at the playoffs.
So I imagine the thought-process right now is "do nothing for the short-term." Only moves which look 2-3 years down the road will be considered. I bet we sell UFA's at the deadline, even if we're in the playoffs.
See how the season shakes out, then, depending on if we make it or not (likely not), the coaching staff gets cleaned out in the offseason and Treleving brings in his first coaching hire.
