No pressure, but if he doesn't knock most of these out of the park he may not be in the GM role come the expansion draft.
How many GMs are fired after three seasons? They're not coaches. They're brought in to implement long-term strategies. The chance Treliving is fired within a year are pretty much nil, regardless of the Flame's record next season.
