Leafs made a decision to be "bigger and harder to play against" under Treliving, and it hasn't really worked.

Here are the pieces Treliving has added on the roster:

Bertuzzi
Domi
Reaves
Edmundson
Benoit
Lyubushkin

Now to be fair to Treliving...he didn't have a lot to work with. His team was out of cap space, and had very little in the way of prospect / draft capital. So he also didn't pay much to bring those guys in.

Leafs had no 2025 1st, and no seconds in 2024-2026, and no third in 2024.

So Dubas had really driven that team into the ground, with very little to show for it.
It's funny how it played out for Treliving.

He left a mess for Conroy to clean up, and ran off to Toronto to clean up Dubas mess.
