Treliving has never been capable of pulling off an in-season trade of significance. His biggest in-season moves have been trading away Glencross/Hudler/Russell - and how long ago was that?
On the trade front Treliving hasn’t executed anything of note since 2018.
On the flip side, Vegas pulls off these trades seemingly every year. I imagine Vegas pulls this off because they have the history of doing moves like this, and Treliving just doesn’t. So far in his GM career Treliving has shown he just isn’t capable of improving the team in-season.
As far as what Frank actually said, I’d lend it about as much credibility as Friedman’s recent comments. Hopefully this all comes to an end soon.
