Well, on that criteria, yes, he didn’t offer a blank cheque to other teams just to make a trade - any trade.
But you can’t just ignore what was actually received for these trades in looking at what Treliving did or didn’t do. It’s common sense to assume he had to beat it. So in his quest to get bigger and harder to play against and get, say PLD, in order to beat Winnipeg, he trades Tkachuk who is pretty big and hard to play against and Monahan. That’s not an imaginary trade proposal - it’s an estimate of what it takes to beat what we know was accepted.
