Many shorter tenured GM's have had more success. Meanwhile, some other historically long tenured GM's, like Darcy Regier and Larry Pleau have not gone as well.
If you think Treliving is a good GM, or can grow into the job, that would be a good reason to keep him. Not because David Poile.

I think Treliving is great at contracts, adequate at drafting and trades, but there seems to be some holes in pro scouting. I think Hamilton and Hamonic have been good and as advertised. Versteeg was a good steal. I think Smith was a obviously a great choice of target. But his assessments of Lazar, Brouwer, Jagr, Bollig, Raymond, Bouma (on his extension) were off. Stewart is for free, so I don't care, and I think Shore can be a decent pickup at a really cheap price.
