Was there a deal to be made for Hutchison at the deadline? If so, this is the first I have heard of it. As good a GM as Treliving may be, even he is not capable of just "making things happen."
Why would you conclude that there is no plan?

1. Ortio is terrible.

2. Pavelec is not tradeable, Hellebuyck can't stay down, therefore Hutchinson.
Michael Hutchinson or Ondrej Pavelec
3. And between BT not mentioning goaltending as a need last HNIC, or Burke saying post-deadline that they will address it in the off-season, there is no immediate plan here. These guys must love a tanking team...
