Only if he retires early. If he just rides out the contract on LTIR then there are no recapture penalties. This is likely what happens with most of these back diving contracts. When the player is done wanting to play, he just has an 'injury' and collects the last of his pay while on LTIR.
I guess it depends how mad Lou is still about how things went down in Vancouver... he could really stick it to them by retiring at the right time.
