I hope this doesn't affect how he runs the team, since I'm pretty happy with the roster management under his tenure.

Aside: I wonder if he ever consider relieving Burke of his duties. It's his team now, might as well make that clear to everybody else. I'm not sure if Burke is an asset to this team anymore.
I agree with the fact the failures rest with him but disagree that he won't get credit for the success. Similar to Brodie and his amazing contract for a 40+OT 2 way Dman if Monahan goes for 40 goals and 75pts this year Treliving will be praised for the great contract he signed for such an impact player

Also Burke is Treliving's boss he would fire Tree not the other way around
