In the end, I suppose we are given choice as to what we will choose to believe: IF Treliving ends up hiring Bill Peters each of us must conclude that either...
1. He is sticking his neck out on this hire because Peters has impressed him as a candidate and he is convinced of his ability to turn this group into a perennial playoff performer.
or...
2. He is sticking his neck out foolishly on this hire because deep down he does not know what he is doing, and can't see and understand the situation with his team nearly as clearly as many posters here on CP.
I will say it again. I trust Treliving's judgment in hockey matters a hell of a lot more than I trust anyone's here.

Elliotte Friedman was asked this morning why Tre is looking at Peters. The only reason he could come up with is that he knows him and you hire people you know.
What other reasons are there to suggest he is a better choice than AV or Sutter?
His teams don't take penalties?
