Okay, so here's the thing with all the treliving hate. Every single ounce of it is fueled by hindsight. You can maybe put 3 bad moves on his shoulders in my opinion. 1. HAMONIC ,worst treliving move by a country mile. 2. James Neal, the cascading effect from that blunder finally ends this year. 3. Brouwer.
.those are his worst transgressions. Even over the shoddy Gulutzan hire that bore zero fruit. At least with Peter's he got a stellar season out of it before it all went to heck and Treliving had to deftly navigate that minefield with a ton of class and made the club look amazing through it.

As for Huberdeau and Kadri, these last two moves by tree have time to work themselves out. I don't much like Kadris deal but that's not egregious.

Truth be told, Trelivings tenure was great. He did the work but the ingredients didn't bake the cake.

Save for those 3 moves he made I posted earlier, you look at the context of when and where the team was at at the time and they rest of his efforts made a ton of sense. Can't blame him for Elliott faltering, Smith was okay for a year, the Hamilton aquisition trade still has a long long lifespan of bearing fruit for the organization still for years to come.

Let's face it, the players and organization let Tree down more than his own work did.
