If Gaudreau told Treliving there was zero chance he was going to sign here everytime they asked him for the last calender year and a half, and proved it further over the months before the trade deadline, by going off and selling his condo, moved his things out, then it's Treliving's fault.
Outside of that, no.
There was a lot of this hand wringing about him like this when Conroy convinced him to sign and forego BC, and for his last deal which went to the wire. The longer it goes on, the more people needlessly get worked up into a lather about the whole situation.
This is Gaudreau's personal and life decision. He will never spend the money he would get from the Flames or any other team from this deal. It's strictly where he wants to spend the next 7+ years of his life playing hockey and starting a family. Full stop.
