I'll just post something because no one else has.

Hope his knee is ok, and I hope he decides to play better next season.

We’ll find out in December!

although I don’t mind the small amount of cap relief it will give us.

Is it likely

Any team would take this guy in a trade deal? He’s hurt more than he’s healthy (like Ference)… bad investment.

While he’s on LTIR he doesn’t count against the cap and his salary is paid by an insurance company. Of course you can’t count on him being out (well except for this upcoming season where we know he’s out until December) so it’s risky either way.
