I think some fan's are kind of overstating how successful of a GM he has been during his tenure here. The most successful we have been in his time here (10th season come October) is 2, 2nd round wins in total. One could argue that the 14-15 season where we went to the 2nd round and won a game was a very heavy Jay Feaster led club.
This is a cap team, a GM who has gone through more than enough coaches, made more than enough trades, FA signings and more. He doesn't appear to have been really restricted in any meaningful way.
Let's not forget we also had the Burke/Maloney combo assisting him for years.
I don't want to see him fired but if we don't have a deep playoff run this year, I don't see how him staying on would be the guy to get us to multiple playoff runs and a cup or two?
In finance, Treliving is a classic closet index manager but he is achieving sub par investment returns while looking like an active manager and doing something.
