The issue I have is that it's not supposed to work this way and what's the point of having a salary cap if players and teams can use LTIR to get out of front loaded deals?

I doubt he doesn’t want to play. Hossa had already won a bunch of cups
Guy just played through three injuries at the same time to try and win the cup. His heart is definitely in it his body is just falling apart
As to your second point the offer sheet rules are changed big time now so the one Philly hit Nashville with wouldn’t even be possible
