I dont see why they would cut Rittich loose after expending a large amount of capital bringing him over, getting him used to the American game, having him actually play very well, only to cut him?
McCollum is bait and will be gone and Schneider is still pretty young. They will find room for every goalie they want to keep whether in their org or others.
