The recurring comments about the club not having enough offensive talent can't be something a GM on the job for seven years wants to hear.
The smoke is at forest fire level at this point I feel. It felt that when he was hired that it was very strongly an ownership decision that was forced upon Treliving, and now with Sutter's comments the past couple of post games, he's coming off very critical of the work his 'boss' has complied. Even saying things that he was brought in to "straighten things out."

I think his true boss are the owners, and Darryl's input will hold a lot of weight in Treliving's fate as the GM by the end of this week - if he's even still internally at this point. The complete radio silence after elimination, and even moreso since trade deadline is telling for someone that's on the hot seat.

Kinda wonder also with John Davidson vacancy, if ownership is doing behind the scenes work to bring him in a president ops since that's a vacant position that really should be filled.
