Peters thing there were rumblings about around 2 months ago now. When the new owner in Carolina started meddling, and everyone knew Peters had an out, I'm sure discreetly inquiries were made.
My guess is AV likely has his destination picked too, since he's been free since likely before the letter from the Rags GM taking about the rebuild and that was almost 3 months ago.
Sutter has enough ties that discreet inquries could be made too. I don't think he and Treliving are a great match, and Treliving has to nail this one to save his own skin, , and in addition to maybe the philosophical conflict, Sutter would also come in with a reputation and stigma that would over shadow Treliving.
And, to that point, Sutter had only really worked under 1 GM in the last 21 years, and that was Lombardi. 5 years in SJ, then 3 months in 2003 here under Button before he got the gig, and then of course himself until 2012, then back to Lombardi. So him working for anyone else that he's not super close with could be an issue for both men.
