I think when you have this great a chance at a Cup run you have to shore up the back up position.
I understand the position of most in here "It's not worth shoring up/other contenders have poor back ups/he's done after this season anyway", but to me it comes down to this:
Can we go on a cup run if Rittich goes down and Smith takes over? Not likely. Can we still possibly compete in the playoffs with a run with a decent back up and a Rittich injury? Probably. Pay for a decent back up, spend what you would have on defensive depth, imo.
