Eichel isn't as cut and dry because of his neck issue, surgery, and the fact that it's pretty clear the Flames didn't have a single prospect in their system that the Sabres liked better than Krebs.

I am not sure what you are saying. Treliving saw a need and tried to acquire a bunch of different players, none of which panned out.
So is the need gone now? That is one interpretation and the team is playing great right now.
I still don't believe this core group of players is good enough and I'd say the need to add a premium forward is exactly the same. If one of those guys were the answer, why were we chasing them?
