Referring strictly to quantity, transplant presented a choice of changing players vs. changing GM, and that you couldn't have both. I strongly disagree with the premise.

Is there an argument over whether Treliving will make more changes than a new GM? IMO that depends a whole lot on who the new GM is. No competent GM is standing pat with this roster going into next year.
Just as an example

Bill Guerin took over the Wild after the 18-19 season where they finished dead last in the Central division.

His first trade wasn't until February of 2020. After enough time to evaluate what he had and what his pieces were worth.

Ken Holland came in after that same 18-19 season with the only team in the West worse than Guerins Wild.

He made one trade that summer. Lucic for Neal.

He didnt make another one until the TD in February of 20.

Maybe Im wrong but I would expect any GM to do the same here....SOP it seems
