Anybody who thinks teams and players don't abuse this to A) get rest for the player, but he's not really as hurt as is claimed, and B) add to the roster because now you can go over the cap and then magically bring everybody back onto the roster come playoff time, is living in denial IMO
The Lightning and Golden Knights are masters at this, and have won 3 of the last 4 cups.

But how does it show “abuse”? The guy legitimately had a shoulder problem. More rest = more time to heal. The “rest” you are talking about is healing time for their body. From injuries. I don’t understand what people want or how they expect it to be policed when nobody is playing a full season without having something happen that any normal doctor would say “rest that and let it heal”.
