Since 2015 Michael Frolik is the Flames #5 highest scoring forward. Treliving did not sign this deal yesterday.

Czarnik is fairly redundant and essentially replacement lvl.

I don't think Neal has helped this team much at all as he's never been a very effective player when he isn't scoring, firing the puck into the goalies chest doesn't help us win.
He may not be scoring but Neal sure as hell has not hurt the team while he is on the ice. He plays with the puck with frequency the offensive zone.

Ryan is redundant with Jankowski.

I'm not saying fire him, i'm saying he makes many more misses than hits in free agency.
With the Flames in first place in the West and leading the Pacific Division by a mile in December I am pretty comfortable with Treliving's record in free agency.

Flames have lost Byron and may lose Bennett.
How do you figure?

Along with all the deals that may have been made had we not spent to the cap with guys like brouwer eating up space for 3 more seasons. Not a disaster...still a negative IMO
These are all pretty minor criticisms. Building a successful NHL franchise takes years, and no General Manager hits the ground running with no setbacks or misses along the way. Treliving stands in pretty good stead with his peers.
