I don’t get that

I find Sutter to have been better at
- having two goalies to start every season
- not hiring Glen Gulutzan
- on ice results in general

Treliving has been here for 6 years now, 0 for 2 in coaching hires, and not much to show for it on the ice. I guess he has some decent draft picks but then the can’t miss high picks like Tkachuk come as a reward for lousy on ice performance

If they defeat Winnipeg then Tre will have seen back to back playoff appearances for the first time. If they go on to make noise in the playoffs then we can revisit, but the on ice results really have to amount to more, in order to have done more for the team than Sutter
