Any other team that the Flames traded him to would have known they were losing him as a UFA after one year.

So what kind of deal do you think Treliving could have made a year ago?
Probably better than he got today.

No sense finger pointing for this one move though. It’s the GM’s team, let’s see what he does by training camp.
