To go on LTIR the player has to be expected to miss a minimum of 10 games/24 days. So Vegas would need to sit a guy that’s (a) injured enough to make that claim and (b) makes enough to make a difference cap-wise. And IMO they would probably have to sit the player for at least 8 to make it look good. That’s 2-3 weeks off for a guy who’s good enough to make a dent in the cap. We’re talking a $4-5M player.
