We wouldn't have had RD Brodie, that's not where GG wanted him. Full stop.
I am no Gulutzan apologist, but he was dealt a hand of four RD and two LD (plus a non NHLer in Bartkowski). Treliving traded for a RD in Hamonic and signed a RD in Stone when he had Hamilton and Brodie. There is no disputing that Tre's role in this was more significant - Gulutzan's 2nd best natural LD that year was Brett Kulak who was effectively a rookie in his first full season.
