Smid's contract actually has more actual salary this year than the cap hit, making it completely unattractive. Cap hit is $3,500,000 while the actual salary is $4,000,000.

No one is trading for Smid, or his contract.
Depends if his contract is insured or not. Being on LTIR and insured would mean a team will be paying significantly less than $4 million.
