No one saw this drop off coming.
Don't know why we need to exaggerate what happened.
Okay. And I think thats a fair statement, but I think it would also be fair to state that Treliving panicked with the GIANT extension contract despite having a year to evaluate.

I liken it to the Nurse contract where the Oilers extended him after the Bubble season despite having an entire additional year to evaluate his play in a normal season.

The Flames extended Huberdeau to a huge contract before he even set foot on Saddledome Ice.

Thats not good management.

If you thought this season would have a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention.
