Holy fucking shit. It was actually submitted and missed by one minute!?!?!

Motherfucking Bundy. Trading Knies at age 23 to our biggest rival, in the division, for a bunch of futures. Holy fucking fuck.

No one better ever say a fucking thing about my views on trading and the approach of looking for the sucker to fleece.
A fucking word
 
I don’t remember anything like this from any other team, even ours with faxmachinegate. This is so humiliating for that clown on every level. With other GMs, his staff, his boss. When I wondered what Bundy could’ve possibly done in front of Pelley, had his pants off and trying to trade for his own players, this is actually almost as bad.
Tire fire of epic proportions. Clown shoes.
 
I would’ve been that pissed if I was Hughes too. So close


Like hitting a grand slam, but as you’re rounding the bases it gets called back because the pitcher fucked up somehow.

And after the deadline passed, he probably had no doubt Treliving was getting fired, and he wasn’t going to get another opportunity to get Knies for a shitty-ass package of mediocre mystery boxes.
 
I think the part that makes the least sense is that the erstwhile centrepiece was another winger...who is a prospect over in Russia still

made the team weaker now with it also being a serious gamble they'd ever come out ahead at all

no wonder Hughes was so hot that Treliving bumblefucked at the goal line
Let’s say it wasn’t a fleecing, how incompetent do you have to be to fuck over your own team? Makes me wonder what other deals Tre screwed the pooch on? I wouldn’t let that guy negotiate a new contract on my lawn maintenance.
 
Yeah but he's a nice guy you can talk to about the weather and stuff so that makes up for a lot
Yeah and he thinks the same shitty outdated things that alot of these talking heads still believe in, especially the recently retired ex players who think the game can be explained by computers.
 
Tre might be worse than Chia/Berg/Bowman ( as a hockey exec)

He might be in his own tier of incompetence

Chiarelli is a funny one, because of course he has the cup on his resume and he was the one who signed Chara as a UFA.

But when you look at the actual track record, outside of the two times he dealt with us (Kessel trade, and Raycroft/Rask trade) almost everything else was fucking brutal.

Since the cup win it's been all head scratchers though.

So yeah, tough to put Treliving anywhere but in his own level of incompetence. How do you, over the course of just a few seasons, manage to turn Gaudreau, Tkackuk and Marner into Weegar, Huberdeau, and Nic Roy? That's historic.

I’d definitely put him in the top spot as the most incompetent Leaf general manager of my lifetime. Even ahead of JFJ, Dave Nonis, Gord Stellick or Cliff Fletcher 2.0, when we briefly reanimated his corpse to serve as our interim GM.

Regardless, he still has the cup and the two Leaf trades.

Bowman has taking the work of Dale Tallon over the finish line ( granted he got Kane, Toews, Kieth to great extensions)

What redeeming thing does Tre have?
