2 players placed on waivers
NHL teams have until June 30 to buy out contracts. First, their names must be submitted to the ballot.
That's what the Coyotes have done, as Zach Kassian and Patrik Nemeth were placed on waivers today.
"The Arizona Coyotes have placed forward Zack Kassian and defenseman Patrik Nemeth on the unconditional ballot in an effort to buy out their contracts."

Both players will see their contracts end in 2024. It would be very surprising if they got another chance in the NHL. When the Coyotes don't want you anymore and are willing to buy out your contract, that's pretty telling.
Note that Arber Xhekaj gave Kassian quite a beating last year.
