Right now he checks the "isn't Gulutzan" box which might be enough for a lot of people.

Not my first pick. Not my 2nd either.
I don't understand why Treliving would make another high risk hire like this. Obviously we don't have a lot of insight into Calgary as a destination for senior coaches, but I don't understand why you would risk your career on another "never won anything" coach.
