It can, and it would in Hossa's case if he played 2 years or less for a team that traded for him now. However, it would be a tiny penalty if he played 2 years. If he played 3 or more, then no penalty at all for the team that trades for him.

Huge penalty for Chicago though, if he retires before the end of the contract.
