I could be incorrect but aren't teams on the book for the remainder of age 35+ multi-year contracts if the player retires?

I thought that was clarified by someone in training camp

if that's the case, then the Oilers absolutely arranged a charade with Smith since he had nagging issues in order to be rid of his salary
