Monahan is on pace for 55 pts and he isn’t worth 5m. Tuch also played on a stacked team where all the top 9 were good players. He was probably worth just shy of a third round pick while Harris could easily fetch a late second.
At the time of the trade, Krebs was just a simple first round prospect. Barron is a young D that can easily play in the nhl and is 15 in his draft class for pts. Barron’s potential is way higher than Krebs’
Krebs was a project. Was an animal for the Winnipeg Ice, good work ethic, good raw skillset.
Barron was immediately given up on after a season with the Eagles. And now hes back in the A with Laval.
Hes also 21st in his draft class from a points perspective.
Probably another guy in Montreals system that pans out to be a bottom pair dude.
Monahan, however, was worth a 1st. So if that's the value the Sabres saw in Tuch, then they were happy.
I also think youre out to lunch if you think Harris nets a 2nd. He was drafted in the 3rd, is 24, doesnt have much to show at the NHL level, 7th D in the system, probably worth a 4th to most teams, given his ceiling isnt high
