So call it how it is.....Treliving quit / chose not to come back to the team, and now Pinder thinks the right thing to do is free him up to help another team using all his knowledge gained being the GM in Calgary to help another team before his term is up.........? (while we have to deal with go into the draft with a GM who isn't fully ready to go).
This would be an ok take, if the Flames fired him (or refused to offer him a contract) or if he was a promo candidate and we were standing in the way of career progression because he was being offered a job we wouldn't give him.
This would be the equivalent of ripping on the Flames for not loaning the Panthers Tkachuk last year for the playoffs instead of us using him in our own playoff games if he told us he wasn't going to return (I realize that's not actually possible in the NHL). Baring some other information, seems like a really bad take from Pinder.
