I have been a supporter or Treliving for the most part. I have always been critical of his coaching hires and that might be the flaw that results in his dismissal.
I called him out for the Bill Peters hiring at the 2018 STH meeting and asked why he didn’t go after AV or Sutter. He was pretty sure of himself he found the perfect coach in Peters. It looked like he was right until the team got embarrassed by the Avs and it was clear they tuned Peters out by the time the next season rolled around.
Hated the Gulutzan hire from the get go and Ward felt like another bargain bin hire.
I like the drafting philosophy and think he has made some good adds to the team over the years. The coaching moves have always been his worst moves
