Many say that as an excuse for Treliving. My point is I believe that Treliving never wanted to rebuild and with the exception of the hire of Sutter he did what he wanted to on the hockey operations side. For Murray to be some overbearing meddling owner he sure took a long time to get his preferred coach in the seat.
The Flames are not forced into anything, they could have spent a bunch of money this offseason and built a bubble team but they did not. Because ownership accepts the direction and advice of the GM.
