Don't spend assets throwing good money after bad. There's no player that is making this team one that is in any way beating the Canes in a 7 game series. Just go with what you have.
I'd want to do the same. I don't think our chances of beating one of the top 4 are as low as you do, especially with Shesty; but we'd be underdogs, and I'm conservative with futures.
If we add somebody at the cost of expendable (or lost) assets like Lundkvist or Kravtsov, then it shouldn't be viewed as that big a negative though. We're most likely to get Pittsburgh in the first round, and if we can beat them and get all the kids some serious experience under their belts, then there is definitely some value to that.
