I also feel that Treliving is using that whole Ferland is going to be a UFA soon as an excuse to justify the trade. If you can't sign him, flip him at the deadline for a pick. He zeroed in on his players, and paid a premium to get those players. He wasnt leaving the draft without his shiny new toys. I am still wondering how he made it thru the first round without pulling the trigger. He bought potential for no.1 RH d-man, which should have returned a no.1 RW.
