Also helps that he has a coach who knows explicitly and exactly what he needs for his team…not just wants, but needs and likely gives BT grief and is riding him to get that player. Before the season, and then midseason as Sutter has a pulse of the team.
Peters I think was the same to a point, but having that specific list allows Treliving to focus on a smaller set of players rather then a general shopping list like Ward, GG, and Hartley would’ve halfheartedly provided, especially midseason.
