The wording is purposefully vague, similar to how a normal standard employee contract is done, and gets terminated with 2 weeks notice... or less.
Yeah but it's not the NFL and teams aren't supposed to be allowed to discard players under contract when teams feel they are no longer useful. This is a case of a player that is possibly using pills due to the rigours he put his body through to play for the Kings as that article says that one year he played on two bad shoulders for the team and had surgery on both in the offseason. They repay him for that by turning their backs on him and in the process making him out to be some bad guy.

Regardless of how this goes I would be pretty disgusted if the Flames did this to one of their own players but I know full well that would never happen as the Flames organization is all class.
