The Coyotes placed Grabner on unconditional waivers for the purpose of buying out his contract Saturday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.
EDGE Analysis
Grabner is still a solid bottom-six player and a good penalty-killer, but he isn't worth the $3.35 million he was set to make in 2020-21. The 32-year-old winger should have plenty of suitors in free agency, but his lack of offensive upside will keep him out of the fantasy discussion.

Grabner scored a short-handed goal on two shots Sunday in a 4-3 win over the Predators in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Qualifiers.
EDGE Analysis
Grabner was home-free from his own blue line and beat Nashville netminder Juuse Saros with a nifty backhand move, putting the Coyotes up 4-1 in the final minutes of the second period. The goal held up as the game-winner following a late Nashville comeback attempt. Scoring heroics aside, Grabner received just 9:12 of ice time, second-fewest among all Arizona skaters.

Grabner tallied a goal in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Golden Knights.
EDGE Analysis
Grabner was the only Coyote able to solve Marc-Andre Fleury in the contest. Through 38 games this year, the 32-year-old has eight goals and three helpers. He's potted only two goals in 12 appearances in December -- Grabner is as streaky as they come and can only be counted on for a handful of hot streaks each season.

Grabner scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Blackhawks.
EDGE Analysis
Grabner opened the scoring three minutes into the game when he deposited his seventh goal of the season. The goal, his first since Veteran's Day, put an end to Grabner's 13-game goal drought. The 32-year-old enjoyed back-to-back 28-goal campaigns in 2016-17 and 2017-18, but he's only managed 15 goals in 72 games since joining the Coyotes prior to last season.

Grabner (undisclosed) notched an assist and three shots on goal in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Grabner set up Christian Fischer's tally in the second period. Grabner had missed the previous two contests with the injury, and he returned to a fourth-line role. The winger is up to nine points and 34 shots on goal in 23 appearances.

Grabner (undisclosed) will be in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Oilers, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Grabner had missed the last two games while dealing with the undisclosed issue, but will finally make his return to the lineup. He'll replace Lawson Crouse (upper body), who crashed into the end boards in Saturday's game against the Kings. Grabner has been solid this campaign, notching eight points in 22 games thus far.

Grabner (undisclosed) won't play Saturday against the Kings, Craig Morgan of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Grabner will miss a second straight game, but he's still considered day-to-day with his undisclosed issue, so he could return to the lineup as soon as Sunday against Edmonton. Another update on the veteran forward's status should surface prior to puck drop against the Oilers.

Coach Rick Tocchet deemed Grabner "a little banged up" ahead of Thursday's game against the Maple Leafs and he will not play, Alexander Kinkopf of the Coyotes' official website reports.
EDGE Analysis
Grabner's absence Thursday will mark his first of the season. He slowed down over the last four games after a five-game point streak in early November, though the veteran's eight points through 22 games this season likely leave him in DFS flier status and only owned in the deepest of fantasy leagues. Barrett Hayton will replace him in the lineup Thursday and will presumably slot in on the fourth line.

Grabner scored a goal on his lone shot and had three hits in a 4-3 loss to the Wild on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Grabner opened the scoring nine minutes into the game for his fifth goal of the season. It extended his point streak to four games, during which time he has two goals and four points. Grabner appears to be settling in after opening the season with just one goal in his first eight games. The 32-year-old had just nine goals in 41 games last season, but totaled 52 goals over his previous two seasons with the Rangers. If he's healthy in 2019-20, it's entirely possible he returns to his 25-goal form.

Grabner registered an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
That's three points in his last three games and six in 16 contests overall this year. Grabner is good for a couple of point binges a year, and all signs are pointing to his current hot run being one of them. Fantasy owners in deeper formats may want to take notice before he cools off.
