Francis may have told Treliving back then he wasn’t interested in Gio or the price to protect him was less. Gio has a pretty nice bounce back after Sutter comes on board and that could change things?

Your assumption could be right and he has no idea what he is doing but I feel like he is facing several roadblocks we are not privy to.

Treliving is on his final straw with me and how he navigates the next 2 weeks will put me firmly in one camp or the other.

If anything the rebuild crowd should be very excited the team did not spend futures to keep their best Dman today or protect Gio over guys who are younger but worse today.
As someone in camp rebuild, it’s a good sign. With all due respect to Gio, the Flames best Dman title is and was Hanifin IMO.
