If Treliving's mandate is to win the cup right now, he's going to have to "spend money to make money" by ponying up a big package for someone good that can fit within Sutter's system and the cap situation.
He is less than a year younger and makes 300k less for the same remaining term. He is not a top prospect and 1st in a deep draft better. You talk like Mangiapane got his 35 playing with Gaudreau or something. He is typically the top offensive player on his line.

A 1st+Coronato is a massive add for a mild upgrade
