Maybe he attached himself to the wrong core or maybe he didn’t build the core enough, traded too many picks for quick fixes that didn’t pan out, made a lot of bad UFA signings that are still a hinderance on the cap, took too long to find the right goaltender, too many coaches and ultimately too many holes to fix at this point.

There’s probably a lot of conclusions that can be drawn, but regardless of what conclusion you come to, the fact is, this organization has been in a race to the finish line for 7 years and we’re still stuck in roughly the same spot as we were before. We’re just spinning our tires in the mud at this point. Treliving has tried everything he can to get us out of the mud, but other teams behind are quickly passing us by. We need a new driver. Someone who can recognize what this team really needs instead of selecting the Joakim Nordstroms, Josh Leivos, Dominic Simons, Brett Ritchies Chris Tanevs and Jakob Markstrom’s of the NHL world.

Fixed.

Complaining about league min contracts. Hilarious. Is Treliving the only GM out there doing this?
