I think both positions are fair.
If you see this as a build issue then you probably want a different guy doing the building. I get that.
If you see this as an execution issue, and think the team that was built makes sense to some degree then it's a different take, and also an acceptable view.
I don't see managing hockey teams as a 100% profession. They all make mistakes. They all draft a guy not as good as they could have drafted. Make bad UFA signings, and have deals not work out.
With Treliving I personally see a guy that has improved the drafting, the development, has been great on RFA signings and has a decent trade record.
Would love to go back and strike Brouwer and Neal from the record like everyone, and hope he's taken steps to rectify this area going forward.
So I keep him.
But just my opinion, I see the other side too.
