Yep, the whole point of LTIR was so that teams didn't find themselves in the same position the Flames were where they couldn't ice a full lineup because they had so many injuries.
What teams like Vegas and Tampa Bay are doing are within the rules because the league didn't think hard enough to make the salary cap all season long but they're definitely abusing it and not using it for it's true intention which is pretty slimy. So like other rules the league needs to modify it so that it's being used the way it was meant to be.
