Exactly. If Treliving had already made up his mind about Gulutzan's future by February, why not make a change to see if it sparks the team?
Look how the Flames responded when Ward came in, they went on a big long win streak. What if Tre brings in Huska as the HC in Feb 2018 when the Flames were still within range of a playoff spot but hardly playing consistent or inspired hockey?
Instead, he decided to bring in Nick Shore for a 7th and claim Chris Stewart on waivers, two guys who scored two total goals, both in blowout losses. And the Flames started losing basically every game they played.
This is coming from someone who really likes Treliving, but his midseason maneuvering needs work.
