That is not what I said at all.

Why does it have to be another rookie GM hire? Also not all rookie GMs have been awful. Yzerman, Sakic, Sweeney, Kekalainen, Nill, Macllenan etc have all done well.
Jim Rutherford and Dean Lomdardi are couple names that come to mind as experienced GMs.

Jim Rutherford and Dean Lombardi are not coming to Calgary. And I would absolutely not describe Treliving's tenure as "awful." He has most certainly not performed any more poorly than Kekalainen, and several of these other guys (Yzerman, Sakic, Sweeney and MacLellan) have inherited franchise and generational players.
