The assumption (and 12 page argument) would be Treliving didn't look into anything, when actually he tried, was turned down, but had little to gain to extend Ward with a press conference saying this is the best we could do.

That's the thing though. There isn't even rumors from reputable sources that he even had interest in an elite coach. All we hear about is how active he his in trying to get trades done or sign players but it's all quiet when it comes to him perusing a legitimate, winning, experienced hockey man. If I'm wrong and he has approached the plethora of qualified options and none those guys had interest in this roster, it should kind of tell you something, shouldn't it? It's either BT has no interest in them or they don't like the look of the team. Either way, it's not good. If the team was an elite contender I suspect an elite coach would actually want to coach here. Maybe I'm wrong and Calgary the city itself is the problem?
