Everything good that Treliving has done shows how good of a GM he is.
Everything bad isn't his fault because ownership made him.
Good draft picks are a credit to Treliving.
Good draft picks before Treliving? well, thank the scouts for those.
Wasn't a big deal made a few years ago, when he signed his extension, that Treliving now had full autonomy to make decisions? I mean within reason of course.
Did that change somewhere? is there any proof that Edwards is forcing him to bungle these assets and constantly burn high draft picks?
It's amazing how many apologies are made for this guy. I'm not saying he's a horrible GM but he has a body of work and he should be judged based on it. Obviously you don't make change just for sake of change and bring in a worse GM but the clock should certainly be ticking on this guy and the first available upgrade should be jumped on. That's regardless of whether he manages to pull the Tkachuk situation out of the fire.
