Accept your fate, the season's lost, and give some kids a chance down the stretch by casting off some veterans, and probably give yourself a decent shot at sliding into a top-10 draft selection.

Wouldn't you say it's beneficial to have those kids competing for a Calder cup? I feel they don't want to strip that team down when they can play for a championship. They will then have that experience and can compete for a roster spot next training camp.
If Markstrom has shaken the bad mojo they will be no where near a top ten pick I feel. But I guess I also don't buy that the mojo is gone either.
