Yeah, a 3rd isn't much for nothing, Cammy for nothing isn't much either, keep the count rolling, of how much isn't much?
Little mistakes, no big deal, free pass, etc.

I am not sure if you know what patiently means, if you are judging Shore/Knighht based on 3 AHL games.
Jay would not be nailed for these additions, because the cost was so minimal. These are not bad deals, nor great deals. They addressed a few issues, and missed the mark on others. Move on, nothing to see here.

Scott Cullen had an article last summer that examines this. He has the chances of a 3rd rounder developing into an impact player (top 6 F, top 4 D) to be between 5.5 and 8.5%
Chances of a 3rd rounder playing in at least 100 NHL games is between 24 and 37.5% (the 37.5 is for picks 61-70 and it drops off from there).
Average player rating drafted is between 2.16 and 2.32 (2 is a minor league player, 3 is a very good minor league player).
Bottom line is that you'd be fortunate to draft someone as good as Bollig, with a tiny chance of drafting an impact player.

That's not really the way I judge it but to each is own. To me, Bollig is terrible and we gave up something to have him for 3 years = bad trade from day one
I mean, by your logic haven't we lost the Berra trade so far?

If the chances are so small, we should scrap amateur scouting staff.
Why bother drafting other than in the first round, let's use Oiler formula for success, we should have followed Sabres blueprint.

Not if the Flames (not "we" - I am not the Flames) didn't intend to re-sign Berra. Then they got a 2nd rounder for a non-asset.

I decided to look into this...
2013 : TJ Galiardi, Lane McDermid
2012 : Cervenka, Blair Jones, Ben Street, Akim Aliu, Brett Carson, Derek Smith
Hm.... I honestly forget some of these guys even played for us.

Yeah, I almost forgotten:

Monahan, Johnny, Poirier, Grunland, etc.
Was the scoring machine Blair one of Jays?

That's my perspective as well. We gave up an asset in exchange for something that I don't consider to have positive value. That's a bad trade.

Yes, some were. Poirier over Skunkaruk, smarter than the other guys in the room for going off the imaginery "board". Failure to sign Erixon.
Wideman, a 6-7 dman.
No credit for Monahan as it was an obvious pick........
Johnny is too small

Even the best organizations make plenty of little mistakes. It's the big ones that alter organizations and to date no big mistakes have been made. Lets not forget Feaster narrowly avoided some really big mistakes in Brad Richards and the ROR trade. I fail to see what kind of case you are making against Treliving. Sure the scouting on Engelland wasn't that great but if you point to Goulet then you also have to point to him scouting Hudler which worked out great. It's pretty obvious that Knight wasn't long for this organization as he wasn't getting called up and with the depth at center he wasn't likely to get a look in a while. Shore is a better prospect so the trade is a win even if he doesn't ever make the Flames roster as said before there isn't a lot of room up the middle as guys like him and Reinhart are not likely to make the Flames roster as full time players.

Erick,
Trelliving's judgment of talent is concerning. Worry, that our drafting will go back to way below league average. That we will trade and keep the wrong prospects.

What is your point here?
We have players that Darryl Sutter aquired on the team as well. How could you possibly compare transactions our new GM made in the first 6o day's on the job with people that have a legacy after over 3yrs with the organization.
At least Treliving has not said anything stupid to the press yet. Give him at least 18 months before you try and run the guy out of town.

If you have come to this conclusion already because he traded Corbin Knight you should try and refrain from using the word patient today

Last I heard the scouting staff that dates back to Darryl Sutter is still intact so unless Treliving goes all Darryl Sutter and tells the staff to focus on size over skill there doesn't seem to be a lot of substance here. You simply haven't provided any compelling evidence to back up your fear mongering.

Bollig, Engeland, Raymond...
One good move, Hiller.
Pattern. Trelliving's record is nothing spectacular so far.
If you give a break to an inexperienced GM as learning on the job, then moves like we have seen in the past from our GM's can never be scrutinized.
