I think the Sabres will look back at this deal in a few years and think about how little they got for a superstar #1 center.
Krebs is a good prospect but doesn't look like a blue chipper to me. Tuch is a good second liner with a good contract. Since the first rounder is lottery protected it could range from a bust to a decent NHL player. 2nd rounder is a total toss up.
It could easily turn out that the Sabres get the equivalent of three 2nd liners back in the deal. Which is not good enough in my opinion.
Disappointed the Flames couldn't beat it. Hopefully it doesn't work out for Vegas.
