This is not Treliving deciding to move on from Tkachuk.
This was Treliving having to react to Tkachuk telling him, and everyone else in the league that HE WAS NOT GOING TO STAY IN CALGARY.
lol
That Treliving took that BS situation and turned it into:
1. An top line winger and top 10 league wide scorer, now committed to CGY for 9 years
2. A top pairing defenseman from the Presidents trophy winning team last season
3. A pretty decenbt prospect
4. A future 1st round pick
Is nothing short of a goddamned miracle.
Blows me away that there are some Flames fans in here wringing their hands over this.
LMAO

Out of thanks, but THIS.
I'm delighted with these moves, and this signing. Hope we get a few more before the season starts.
