Glad the organization made the right call and retained Treliving. I am disappointed in how this ordeal played out and hope they have learned their lesson. I feel the Flames have rebuilt their solid reputation that was tarnished under Feaster. With the delays in getting this contract done some of those old skeletons fell out of the closet and whispers of Ken King and Murray Edwards meddling in Hockey Ops resurfaced. Similar allegations were commonplace during the Feaster days.
The media speculated for weeks about the fact Treliving didn't have a deal. It was just foolish to let it hang out for so long. He should have had his extension mid-season and this should have been a non issue.
