Expertise/hit cape or crit/haste one?

Right now i'm using
this
cape in order to cape my expertise, but i've just won
this
which EJ theorises is BiS even though it forces me to regem 2 sockets (80ap, 40 haste). And if I have to ditch my gloves that becomes 6-7 gems slots. So is the new cape really worth using? I wasn't even going to roll on it until EJ said it was BiS - but then again that list is using full best in slot and also gems for hit rating - which is something about the crit cap I don't quite understand.
So as someone who probably won't get too far into 25 man ICC instead will do progress in 10 man, what should I do? If the cape isn't worth using I can just ticket it back to a guildie of mine.

There is a point when it's okay to lose haste and hit to maximize stats. If you aren't losing a ton of stuff than I would say get the new cape it is significantly better and then gem or enchant to makeup what you have lost in hit and exp.

I'm still not entirely sure. EJ says to avoid the exp/crit ring because it pushes you to the critcap in BiS gear, but i'm not in BiS gear and never will be. Instead they say the next best ring is the hit/haste ring which means you can lose hit elsewhere. But they say to equip the crit+haste cape anyway.
I just plugged the stats into wowhead, using crithaste cape + t10 gloves gets me 70 crit rating, 20 haste rating, 10 hit rating and 50AGI's worth of melee crit, but loses me 150ap. So yeah I guess the exp gemming is better, I think you have to use the T10 gloves anyway.
