In my mind he's forever linked to Mark Stone. There's some debate whether it was a signed Mark Stone or a rental Mark Stone (though I think he could've been signed if it wasn't a signed Stone) that Treliving passed on to hold onto JV.

No doubt that the fortunes and make up of the Flames then and now would be a lot different with Mark Stone. Stone would've made more of an impact in even a rental spell here than JV has made in the 2.5 calendar years since.

He shouldn’t be linked to Mark Stone at all. I hate to get back into this because it’s been rehashed so many times but,

It’s not a debate, it was reported by Lebrun that Stone was only willing to sign in Vegas.
