Other thing is, I think Treliving moved Hudler earlier so he could focus on the Russell deal. There were only two defensemen available but lots of forwards. It looks like it all worked out.

I think Treliving did fine on the Hudler deal, but Sweeney just gave up 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th round picks on 2 average players.
Add the Hamilton trade, off the board drafting, accidental press releases, and I think you got a bad GM. He could improve though.
