Hyman, Ekholm, Nugent, etc. are all getting older, slower and more injury prone.
They have no good prospects or draft picks.

Next year they will have about 23M in cap space to sign 2 F, 2 D and 2 G. About 3.81M on average which includes replacing their #1 goalie and #1 D. I don't think their depth problem will be solved in the next 3 seasons.
That would be a 21 man lineup, pretty tough to go with only one scratch all year.
