I wonder if the Coyotes saved another team from this embarrassment. Wasn't it earlier in this thread that someone reported about 1/3 of teams had him on their do not draft list. Which implies 20 teams might have considered drafting him with a later pick.
Given their experience with Peters, I'll bet Treliving wanted no part of him.
