If the bit about Wideman is true above, then what Treliving set out to do at/before the trade deadline shows merit.
By doing so, he:
1. Made the team better on the back end
2. He righted the attitude in the locker room, on the ice with both the players and the refs, and throughout the fanbase.
both immediately before a huge playoff run to get this machine going. Based on this alone, Treliving should be extended. Burke was right, Tre bleeds red for this team, and it shows.
