Treliving was not proactive and was reactive when it came to dealing with his stars. He was forced into a Tkachuk deal only when it became apparent Tkachuk wouldn’t sign. Didn’t have the same foresight with Gaudreau. Should have been fired the previous offseason or have been dismissed at the same time as Ward.
We would be a better team right now had Treliving made that trade? What evidence is there to support this?

There's no telling what trajectory that could have set the Flames on but I think it's safe to say they would have immediately been worse and the same cohort, Lanny included, who criticizes the team would have been equally as critical for 'selling low' on Gaudreau at the time.

Amazing that you guys can't seem to recognize the perpetual position/bias you take.

Gaudreau' eventual departure had more to do with Gaudreau's backing out of a verbal agreement at the last hour than it does with Treliving (and Conroy and Maloney) handling of the situation.
