There's really no compelling argument of why Treliving should keep the job and get a second crack at building a contending team. In seven years, he's amounted a cap team each season essentially that only got past the first round once; which was in the early years where it was moreso an inherited team and coach than one he made. He has several upcoming RFA's UFA's that are probably going to be too costly to all keep, and the team isn't even going to be a playoff contender, let alone cup contender.
That is Edmonton Oilers GM'ing bad.
