Bottom line; he was a bottom of the rotation guy who had a specific role on the team & did it. Brandon Bollig's presence on the team 2-3 years ago has next to nothing to do with the Flames today or tomorrow.

The fact people use this as ammo to suggest Treliving is a poor GM is weak.
It's the pattern of trading draft picks, occasionally for fringe NHLers, which causes me some concern.
