The gamble was keeping a team together and going for it ... he had a career year and the team won the division and a playoff round. In Calgary history that's a good season.
So risk 1 averted
Other risk was losing him for nothing.
If the reports of the Flames matched his offer are true, then really they averted that risk too, but got left at the alter.
Not much you can do.
But if you don't like Treliving it's ammo for sure. He lost the player in the end. If you're neutral on the guy I don't think you're seeing it as his fault at all with the info trickling in about what went down.
