Every year Treliving has attempted to do just that. While Lucic is a bum, on paper he's getting rid of a bad "goal scorer" contract and trading it for a bad "power forward" type contract - of which we seemed to be missing this year.

Seriously?
LOL...like why do any GM's get fired? I mean it's pretty obvious that if teams under perform, then without question the GM is a huge part of what needs to be changed. I find that statement just...odd.
And he is trading the bad contract that HE signed.
Im not at all advocating for him to be gassed, merely suggesting that after the disappointment of the playoff series in which his club got completely smoked, and spending to the cap year after year....ownership may be seriously looking at his performance as well as that of everyone involved.
He has been here 5 years now. He has fired 2 coaches, hired two coaches, and brought all of 8 home playoff dates in that time.
Its really not a stellar record in regards to results even though things were in shambles when he took over. I am only looking at this from an ownership perspective. I like BT a lot , I just believe that his rope is a lot shorter than it was and with what happened yesterday, its even shorter now.
