Nope. I am correct. Working together over a World Championships is certainly considered work experience. Also Treliving and Gulutzan knew each other from the ECHL/AHL time;

“I lent him a player — Curtis Fraser — and Tree kept saying, ‘Yeah, we’re sending him back to you tomorrow,’ ” he said, grinning. “That lasted six months, so we had six months of phone calls. That’s where the relationship started.”

I could bring up Don Maloney if you want other examples of Treliving surrounding himself with people he's got experience with. To be fair this happens often in sports but I'm not sure if it equates to hiring the best people for the job in most cases.
