The flames traded for and signed middle tier players to get to the playoffs rather than wait a little longer to build through the draft.
Offered term and no trades to players who didn't deserve it and put themselves in cap jail as a result.
For good teams, free agency is for adding small dollar depth, top tier free agent to push you over the top or key top tier role player to address vital need.
The flames under treliving use free agency to plug holes in the middle of the lineup.
That's how you get Kevin Hayes at 7 million.

Basically all of trelivings free agent signings have become an inconvenience with only a couple notable exceptions.
Is there a other gm in the league with as many buyouts as Tre over his tenure?
It's not a good look.
