Everything else is gravy. I'd be thrilled as all hell to be a Kings fan right now. Its a goddamn shame they're sitting in our playoff spot and just got better.
If they make the playoffs that 1st is going to be practically worthless anyways and I cant speak for McKeown because I know literally nothing about him. Its a heavy price but hell, Sekera is going to re-sign. Because he's going to be on a powerhouse team that is looking to establish a dynasty and he'll get to do it in LA.
What they've done is sacrificed then for now but they're built for now. They're going for broke to win as much as they can right now.
It makes tons of sense.

With the cap not going up they are going to be in tough to resign him.
Pearson, Toffoli, Jones, and Shore are all RFA who will get some sort of a raise.
McBain, Regehr, Williams, Stoll, and Sekera are now all UFAs.
Martinez and Muzzin both have about $3 million each in cap hit increase next year.
Clifford and Nolan have small raises that kick in.
Plus they have Kopitar and McNabb (who has been good for them) that they will have to worry about re-signing next season.
Unless they can move Richards (and maybe Brown) they won't have the cap space for all of those guys.
