You could be right but the way I see things.
Gaudreau >> Reinhart and the fact Johnny comes in with 2 years and $10M cash owed would be a big factor for the Sabres. They also sell the fanbase on improving their roster with a 27 year old one year removed from 99pts. This also should appease Eichel short term and potentially be the beginnings of a dangerous combo up front for them.
Flames would be pretty much forced to pay Reinhart on a long term deal.
Kylington is younger and cheaper than Montour who needs to be qualified at over $3M and likely wants a long term deal.
Buffalo is saving huge cash the Flames are adding some critical right shots they need in the lineup.
I do feel like my initial offer favored the Flames but adding 19 makes it less enticing for me. If Buffalo adds their second maybe the Flames add another late pick then including 19 makes sense for me.
