We all know Brad Treliving the executive. It might seem like he's been in a front-office role forever and been a General Manager for as long as we can remember. But, before he stepped into management, Treliving laced up his skates in the AHL, IHL, and ECHL.
These revelations add a new layer to our understanding of Treliving as a person. He showed the determination to not only play hockey, but also to safeguard his fellow players by leading efforts to unionize. It's safe to infer that Treliving deeply cares about his players' well-being, both on and off the ice.
Despite the bustling summer ahead, there's no doubt Treliving will make the most of it, as he's consistently done throughout his career.
