Brad Treliving took two, hand-delivered, massive piles of s***, and turned it into three bars of Gold.

I don't give a crap about how the back-end of Kadri's & Huberdeau's deals look after 4 years. Treliving just created a golden 3-4 year window in which this team has a legitimate chance to contend year after year.

Due to Treliving, the Flames now have:

- Elite C group
- Arguably the best defense in the league (hands down best #1-#6)
- Vezina goaltending
- best coach in the NHL (minimum top 3 for those who want to argue)

That already the makings of a top-notch contender, without even mentioning the possibility of Treliving adding a quality RW and/or adding to the overall forward depth.

I will gladly, but respectfully, tell anyone who still has criticism's of Treliving's offseason, to f*** off
The Flames also shed a group of players with a history of collapsing in the playoffs.

Kadri's playoff record is top notch. His major downside has been trying too much and losing his cool. He seems more mature now through.
