LTIR was never intended to help teams acquire injured players via trade. It's a pretty freakish circumstance that put Vegas in a position to use it that way. I personally would wait to see if it happens twice before I consider it a loophole big enough to need closing.

Chicago did the same thing in 2015. Kane got hurt and went on LTIR. They traded for a boatload of guys, Kane came back for the playoffs and they won the cup.
