Brad Treliving is doing a great job.

You can blame Treliving for re-signing them... that is what this thread is about.

You can credit him for re-signing the two better ones.

You can't blame him for re-signing the other two until/unless he does.

He signed the 1st and 3rd best... I'm not going down this road again, but that is who he signed.

There were more hits in the two Atlantic series than the rest of the league combined. Anyone who can't compute you need a toughish, big team, to make it out of our division, is simply ignorant to reality. Also Maurice seems to yell a lot, so what asinine criticism is that?

Dubists are intellectually boring and irrelevant. Also beyond transparent. A sleep aid.

I like this team, and I'll stand by it. This is the best iteration to date imo and a clear upgrade behind the bench. Get back to me in March.

Kind of forced that no? Also was universally praised at the time for the return he managed to get under horrible circumstances. It looks a tire fire now, but I recall the applause at the time, a lot here too.

Your opinion, but apparently not his.

But of course that's irrelevant to the discussion anyway. You said he could be blamed for re-signing the $10+M players and I just pointed out that you shouldn't blame him for doing what he hasn't done.

Tre is like most GM's ....if fans thought he would be alot better then Dubas then lower your expectations.
Trey signed some questionable contracts and is now stuck on waiting on Marner and Johnny T.
He has no leverage with Marner so its just a waiting game and from all I read Tre seems like he would like to resign Marner. Johnny is all about price. Tre has leverage as Johnny T wants to stay in TO and retire here.

Hopefully something happens with Lilly and Kampf....we need the cap space to get us our 2n line center. The Lilly extension isnt turning out well but who knows what atribation would of awarded Lilly.

I think Tre has been just ok. I do like the OEL pickup and Tanev is a solid player but that contract is just too long. The abuse he takes blocking shots its going to take its toll. Lorentz signing was great. He has been a pleasant surprise....extend him. He is the perfect 4th line winger.
Signing Reaves for 3 yrs at 1.35 mil is throwing money away. Not a big deal cap wise but they guy really offers nothing. Straight line hitter.....nothing else. The locker hasnt changed like said.
But then again im bias as Im not a fan at all.

I know. I just don't think what he did in Calgary is relevant when discussing his work in Toronto.

That's like saying Babcock did a great job here because he won the Cup.
