Thats not now LTIR works
"When a player is placed on LTIR, their cap hit remains on the teams cap payroll and it continues to count as it always did. It also does not provide the club with additional cap-space savings that can be banked for future use while the team operates above the salary cap. Instead, LTIR provides relief if the club's averaged club salary, or payroll, begins to exceed the upper limit."
If Larsson and Brodziak you could add 6m in cap space today exceeding the upper limit, but if you wanted to take Larsson off LTIR bc he's no longer injured you have to make roster moves to bring that upper limit back to 0
