I sure hope he gets re-signed soon and his offseason list should include:
1.) Find a legit starting goaltender (+ new goalie coach)
2.) Get rid of Brouwer, pay LV an extra asset to take him.
3.) Try and acquire a top line RW. I love Ferland but he's just not that guy.
4.) Hopefully fill some other open spots by promoting within.

he didn't do his best. he went cheap and hoped Elliott would rise up to the challenge of being a dependable and consistent #1.
doing his best would have been getting bishop, for example. even bishop thought he was going to Calgary.
you hope things don't get pinned on Treliving. some should be pinned on him. this is the goaltending tandem he chose, and he went out and signed Brouwer. who else should that be pinned on?
I wouldn't fire the guy though. plusses outweigh the minuses.
maybe he wants to leave to take over the family business, as his dad isn't getting any younger. who knows.
