I think Treliving is the perfect assistant GM. A guy that hits the phones hard and is a good contract negotiator. He has a poor grasp of head coaches and is a fan of the outdated approach of building out from the blueline first. It seems like two decades of Flames teams with stacked defense groups that never pay off because the team is always deficient at center or wing. Having a solid top 4 is important but seems a like a good defense in today's NHL is a strong offense. He will get another GM gig for sure if he leaves the Flames but his success elsewhere will depend on how much he's learned and is willing to change from his approach in Calgary.
