According to TSN’s Bob McKenzie, the Calgary Flames have their man.
Treliving is both the son of Dragon’s Den star Jim Treliving and an experienced hockey executive. He’s served as:
  • GM of the AHL’s San Antonio Rampage
  • GM of the AHL’s Portland Pirates
  • Assistant GM of the Phoenix Coyotes.
Also…(per his Coyotes website bio):
Treliving, 44, joined the Coyotes after serving as the President of the
Central Hockey League (CHL) for seven years. During his tenure,
Treliving guided the CHL to remarkable growth and development. Numerous
successful expansion franchises were introduced including the Arizona
Sundogs in Prescott Valley who began play in a new arena in 2006-07.
That season, the CHL led all North American “AA” professional hockey
leagues in attendance for the sixth consecutive campaign.
Treliving co-founded the Western Professional Hockey League (WPHL) in
1996 and served as the league’s Vice President and Director of Hockey
Operations for five seasons. The native of Penticton, British Columbia
played an integral role in the merger of the WPHL and the CHL in May
2001 upon which he began his tenure as President of the league.
    We’re awaiting an announcement from the Flames confirming the move. CBC’s Elliote Freidman recently reported that Treliving had interviewed with the club.
    If/when it’s official, Treliving would become the 7th full-time general manager in club history (after Cliff Fletcher, Doug Risebrough, Al Coates, Craig Button, Darryl Sutter and Jay Feaster).
    By all accounts, a pretty smart, bold move by Brian Burke. Treliving has a strong reputation in hockey circles.
