That's a rather sad pot shot to take.
The Panthers are a really good team and fun to watch. Zito has done a great job with their core, crown jewel being the Tkachuk trade. Almost everyone thought Treliving took him to the cleaners and instead he looks to have come out massively on top. That's good GMing, doing stuff that isn't obvious. Unlike the armchair GMing that Treliving did in Calgary ("Hey I need a top six RW and here's this big name, over the hill James Neal, perfect fit!!!!!"). When it came to team building, chemistry and finding players that fit, Treliving was a bottom of the barrel GM in this league and screwed this team over big time by creating a steaming pile of misfits.
So yeah "double down" on Panthers not winning with their core if that makes you feel better about the Flames situation. But they are actually really good compared to this mess Treliving left.
