Part of the reason why Krebs was important to Buffalo is because he projects to be a centre in the NHL. If that was important to the Sabres, the Flames had little to offer. I'm not sure if Zary projects to be a centre or winger at the NHL level.

But I think the fan perception that "offers can be beat" by throwing in more stuff is fundamentally flawed.
exactly this.

also, at what point would it have been TOO much for Eichel? we could have added multiple 1sts and prospects and players but should the Flames have? it would have been a pyrrhic victory
