I didnt forget the question-mark on that sentence.
Who cares about the availability of who they want to hire? If GG is here or not does that change anything?
If he'd been fired already they'd have released it so he could look for new work.
If ownership is so cheap they just want to keep the guy thats already being paid then that pretty sends the message. Coaches are not immaterial, which is why they're being paid so much now.
I'm not saying that Treliving is pacing and shaking in fear of a decision, but 'evaluating everything' and taking forever to do it is very much the sign of analysis paralysis.

OK.
I'd hope that a hockey ops group would go a little deeper than your 1,2,3 analysis, but what ever floats your boat.
Sorry to get in the way of your "I have everything figured out" parade.
