At this point the longer Treliving holds on the more I have at least some faith in him. I hope he makes no moves right until deadline day. The Canucks and Oilers both have two games at hand so by then it should be obvious if the Flames no longer have a shot at 1st or 2nd in the division and at that point there's no point in trying to upgrade the team if you know home ice advantage is improbable. Best course of action would be to sell on Brodie but this is the Flames so I would be happy with simply standing pat as that would at least show the GM realizes that he can't afford to part with a 1st round pick that isn't guaranteed to be a lottery pick. The team's record was pointing down prior to the injuries so there really are no signs that they are close to breaking out even when Gio and Hamonic come back.
