As far as I know nothing, I think we can retain a portion of salary and the other team could do some economic feng shui within the organization to make it work
i.e. call-ups and waivers.
I bet if Brad wants to make a move, he'll be able to get it done and Russel and Hudler could garner a nice return. It's the right thing to do for the organization at this point. Even if we make the playoffs were just fodder for the Ducks or Kings.
