As for evidence the GM has fallen in love with his team....

In the last 5 games since the hail-mary to Darryl "I've retired from coaching hockey" Sutter, Johnny & Monny have combined for a pitiful 3 points and -3 in the most desperate hockey games of the season.

That should sound familiar because that's what they do in the playoffs.

They should have been gone last offseason.

And yet they're still on the roster.
I think your underestimating the impact the pandemic and a flat cap is having. How many trades of significance where core pieces are involved has there been since last March? Not many. Domi-Anderson, Liane-PLD. Are there any more?

Laying the lack of trades at the feet of Treliving is misguided. Should go without saying, but you need another GM to want to make the trade as well.
