This isn't Xbox. What do you suppose EP is worth right now? Maybe a late first which equals a crap shoot. Maybe another teams project. No thanks. You definitely ride it out and see where it goes. Heck, if he sucks this bad next year he won't be worth much less, if any less. A former, struggling, young, Calder winner will always be worth something. That something and what he's worth now isn't that much of a difference. So just keep him.
