Anyone who thinks that Treliving has been merely "okay" has exaggerated expectations of the office. People like to point to a handful of questionable decisions made by Treliving in his tenure in Calgary, but then also fail to balance this against the work of his 29 counterparts in the NHL. Never mind the fact that he has only been a GM in this League for three years; the fact of the matter is that ALL General Managers will NOT always make perfect decisions, and against this metric Treliving actually looks pretty stellar.
