I was heated leading up to the introduction could I have been nice sure but I have spent closing in on 20 years as a STH and hold Treliving the absolute most responsible for hiring Gulutzan and the mess of this past season, the mess going into this draft. Treliving as GM is teflon every poor decision slides off him and nobody truly holds him accountable.
Some of us actually care about the quality of the team and the results and I wanted to be clear this meet and greet with STH is yet another lacking of accountability appearence for you BT.

If you had one shot would you take it.
I took it, so do most agree with my conduct nope.
But I took it and it is unlikely I will have other chances to tell the GM In a measure, I hold you accountable.
I understand the sentiment of not wanting to suck up, but you can be respectful and question his trades at the same time. "Hello Mr. Treliving, let me ask you about the trade for Travis Hamonic..."
I think if you had approached it in this manner, the message would be better received and leave him open for a discussion. By phrasing it the way you did, he would've immediately shut you out. It's just human nature. People need to be open to what you're saying if you want them to hear you.
I admire and understand your passion for the team. I too am prone to crazy outbursts but I'm trying... just some food for thought man.
