What is the coach supposed to do with a guy who 29 other teams don't want, and the GM refuses to send down? Treliving should sack up and make the necessary roster change. Ownership probably isn't keen on burying another 3m in the minors (Kotalik 2.0) but Granlund deserves to stay with the big club.
Hartley can bench him as he did last night. Hartley can stop feeding him PP time. Hartley can play him on the fourth line giving him 6-8 mins a night. A lot of things Hartley is in control of. Treliving isn't in control of Raymonds icetime as far as we know.
