I also think the rumors of Treliving standing pat, is a plant. He has little draft capital immediately to work with and probably doesn’t want to come across as desperate. No way a team with Matthews, Marner and Nylander as your prime core, doesn’t push for adding. Especially when the GM is new, had high expectations and can’t afford to have the fan base turn on him. If I were to guess one of his better prospects is traded for a defenceman when his posturing are ego are checked. One thing is Treliving trades with the people he tends to know. And we have two d. I still think it’s possible.
