-Already been said in this thread, but the Coyotes aren't going to be terribly interested in a 29 year old Grz, especially when they're already taking back $3.1M of Craig Smith to help make the deal work. Lohrei & the picks are a good start, but they're going to need another prospect - not Lysell, but someone like Matt Poitras or Georgi Merkulov that has some sort of NHL trajectory. Grz doesn't fit their timeline, and beyond that, actually has a salary higher than his cap hit - the type of contract that's been anathema to the cap floor Coyotes in the past few years.
-This is a laughably bad deal for Kane, regardless of how you feel about him as a player. It's a 2nd rounder three drafts away, two prospects with "AHL depth/4th line forward" upside, and a cap dump - this would maybe get you Max Domi fully retained, but certainly not Patrick Kane. Even in a down year with nagging injuries he's scoring at a 60 point pace - even if he controls his destination he'll still get a better package than this (see: Claude Giroux last year.)
-Probably fair for Schenn but do you really need him?
