I don’t think his agent was betting against him, I read an article that Treliving was in talks with the agent but that he mentioned there was a certain timeline to follow or in other words he was going to be patient with the process. In my opinion, I think Treliving should’ve been extremely agressive in getting a deal done even if it meant giving more concessions to the agent’s side because now, if Tkachuk doesn’t drop off in his production, his leverage on Treliving will be through the roof relative to last summer.
