In this case, you would be in the boat of firing Treliving right? Obviously he had too high expectations..
I think he overpaid for Hamonic because he really wants the guy in the top 4 D when this team is really contending - in 2 or 3 years- and paid the price to get him now. His expectations are - as someone else was pointing out in the Treliving bashing thread - properly longer term. If you think your team is contending in 2 or 3 years - that first round pick isn't of much use for that run.
