for all his faults towards the end, Treliving was the Calgary Flames 2nd best general manager behind only Fletcher.
He did mismanage contract situations towards the end, but he did manage to make the Flames an elite team for a while, which is something nobody since Fletcher had done. They couldn't get it done and two important free agents wanted to be in the states after Covid. He was short sighted at times to try and build the team to be as good as possible right away, but the Flames did get there a couple times.
