This was a great move by Treliving.

This is my sentiment exactly. He does have some left in the tank, but is a 3rd liner max on a good team and he isn't worth that price tag for what he brings now. He was great value for the first half of his contract but shedding him now without retaining salary is huge! Great job by Treliving.
So, moving forward we have a line up like this:
Tkackuk - Lindholm - Mangiapane
Gaudreau - Monahan - Backlund
Lucic - Ryan - Dube
Bennett - Jankowski - Reider
Scratched/Injured: Czarnik, Rinaldo
We badly need to get another top 6 winger, there is no doubt about that. Finding someone who will trade our bottom 6 players and maybe a defenseman will be a really tough thing to pull off I think. Here is believing in BT. Obviously without trading our first rounder for 2020 or 2021 will be the real task to get someone for that second line RW role for this team. I hope they aim at some younger, up and coming guys who need a change of scenery and not sell our future to fill that role before the trade deadline.
Make it so BT.
