He's the same guy he was here. Which is a terrible hockey player.
Both are.
his most recent performance is 3g 3a in his last 10 games?

Lucic has 1g 1a in his last 10...

Ok, setting aside how ludicrous I think this opinion is, your argument here is that best case scenario, Treliving has made a 5 million dollar long term mistake and hasn't fixed it in 18 months?

That's the best possible outcome? That's the mitigating factor for trelivings body of work of buyout owrthy free agent signings?

Somehow I believe you wouldn't be nearly as forgiving were it Jim Benning or Peter Chiarelli buying out their third signing and dealing for a contract you and many others on this board saw as maybe the worst contract in the league before it landed in Calgary.
