I think that's a little bit of an over-payment for Haula. A 2nd + Reaves dump <-> Haula, so Nylander for a 2nd? I like the idea but I think we can do better.

I really like Donskoi but not at that cap hit.

It would be Nylander + cond 1st for Haula - Haula had 29 goals and 55 points with Vegas in 2017, that's very good for a 2C. The condition is protection if he doesn't work out/decides to become a UFA, but a good prospect + 1st for a long-term top 6 player is a fair value. Look at what Pittsburgh gave up for 1-1/2 years of Brassard (I paid less as deadline prices are higher, but similar situation player-wise). Nylander has struggled with pro hockey and his worth isn't that of a normal top 10 pick due to that. Meanwhile, Reaves deal nets Buffalo a 2nd - not bad at all.

I used Evolving Wild's projection for Donskoi, but if Buffalo could get it down a bit that would be fine. I tend to project contract $ higher than I'd actually do (rather save money if it happens IRL, than project too low).
