a) Players who retire from the NHL will have their contracts voided. If the player retires mid season, managers are responsible for the salary for the rest of that current season, but not subsequent years. If a player retires during the off-season (I.E. before Game 1 of the NHL regular season), that player can be removed from the spreadsheet/roster immediately on a manager's request to do so. There must be clear, confirmed evidence to support a player's status as "retired".
b) If a player officially retires from the NHL to play elsewhere (i.e. Ilya Kovalchuk situation with the Devils), that still counts towards meeting the requisite as defined by Rule a).
c) If a player is under contract with a Dynasty Team, but is not playing in the NHL for any reason other than official NHL retirement, that player's Dynasty contract is still valid for the remainder of the contract's TERM. Be wary of signing "Flight Risks" to long TERM contracts. The only option out of these contracts is to buy them out.

Question that is the furthest thing from urgent...does the Sedins retirement take their buyouts off my books next season? This is something that hasn't yet come up in our history

No, buyouts are buyouts and remain on your books for their full extent. When a player is bought out, you're essentially paying to get their roster spot back, which you've already benefited from, and all other connections between player and team have been severed.
