This team is garbage because Treliving is the GM. He’s had every possible resource made available to him, and he’s accomplished nothing. Perhaps there was something to him not having full control in his first few years, but he was also a rookie GM and reporting to a President of Hockey Ops, but that hasn’t been the case for a while now.
Dude just isn’t a good General Manager in this league, even if he is the best one we’ve had in a while.

Yeah pretty much.
I don’t think Treliving is a bad GM necessarily, but his vision is completely flawed. He walks in every year with a revamped defense and a new goalie and thinks this team is ready to take the next step. He finally gets an “elite” goaltender in Jacob Markstrom and an elite defensive defensemen and now the Flames can’t even get to the playoffs.
His right wing depth is an absolute abomination. It’s a travesty. Watching Tyler Toffoli by himself consistently crush the Flames playoff hopes is an absolute gut punch. I don’t think Treliving would know a what a good right winger looks like if it bit him in the ass.
