Treliving's coaching hires were the worst mark on his record before Sutter. He made plenty of good signings and trades, but he made some terrible coaching decisions. Gulutzan is probably the coach I dislike most in the decades I have watched the team. Hiring Sutter has been a massive recovery.
I do appreciate that Treliving has shown time and again that he's willing to try making big moves to improve the team.
