I'm okay with Treliving getting another chance. Was it a bad move to part ways with Burke when we did? We had moved to a new organizational hierarchy, but did away with that fairly soon. Yes Burke had a couple of a questionable draft choices in his year where he was the main guy making the calls, but he does have pedigree and working in tandem with Treliving longer might have helped.

I remember him not being a big fan of Baertschi from the get go, and that trade (Albeit done by Treliving) netted us Rasmus Andersson through the draft.
