He is just an expensive role player. We are paying for Treliving’s mistake until Lucic retired. That is still not a good thing.

Sure, but take a look around the league. Pretty sure you can find a player, or several, on each team that is overpaid. This is manageable if you have ELC’s or other value contracts, of which there are several on the Flames. In any event signalling out one contract as a point of criticism is a pretty thin argument. The entire picture needs to be taken into account and Treliving has done pretty well with his RFA deals and the ability to integrate ELC’s into the line up.
