Treliving saying Bob took the team as far as he could was bang on too. I still wish he'd fixed the goaltending and let Hartley finish his contract, but understand the move.
Hilarious that two of the Canucks recent coaches/assistants are both in the post season now as well.

I honestly don't think Treliving had ever planned on extending Hartley, but the improbable 2014/15 season resulting in round 2 of the playoffs and coach of the year for Hartley, forced BT's hand.
I also remember hearing about BT being in on both Talbot and Jones in the 2015 off-season, but he ended up grabbing Dougie that summer instead when he suddenly became available.
