History will tell but when you label their package as "junk" it is designed to suggest somehow Tree screwed up.
I stated several times along the way that if Krebs was put on the table that it would like be over. So this isn't revisionist history by me.

Have you watched him in pro games? He's got
one PP goal in the AHL in 10 games, of his 10 apples 7 of them were in 2 blowout wins against bad teams. in 13 NHL games he has
one assist, he's not 18, he turns 21 in 2 months.
Dube at his age had 19g-57a AHL points and 7g-14a NHL points.
Krebs is a muffin, he looked good in junior because of his skating but that's against junior players, he's small and has a very weak shot, he looks more like Rob Schremp(without a good shot) than some future star to me, he'll have to transform himself even to become an NHL regular IMO.
For the record I would have given up Lindholm, Valimaki, prospect and protected 1st for a player that could very well change the fortunes of this team. Zero chance Buffalo doesn't take this.
Lets agree to re-visit this in a year.
