Exactly, richards doesn't fit into your lineup and you don't play him for a year or two to see if he can bounce back.
You trade for him and buy him out in the offseason.
The trade revolves around how much is LA willing to give to Calgary to not have between 1.5 and 5 million dollars of unusable cap space for the next 7 years.
