Another Treliving blunder, which can partially be blamed on Gulutzan (who he hired) is the fact that they had Brodie, Gio, Hamilton on the backend at the same time and still couldn’t make the playoffs. That’s three top pairing defenseman
Obsession with LS/RS D-pairings led to them breaking up one of the best pairings in the league (arguably the very best, that’s how effective Gio/Brodie were together) and also led to the awful decision of insanely overpaying for Stone and Hamonic to try and pair with Brodie
