In my eyes Andrew Lord needs to be on the ice, he is the best captain in the league, I mean this in a kind way as I don't doubt his coaching skills but Devils are a better team when he is out there demanding the commitment from his team mates by example, I hate it when he ices against us!
I think I would agree if Kearney was head and shoulders above the likes of Culligan and Doucet in terms of ability. From what I've seen so far, he isn't though. He's a good player, no doubting that, and perhaps offers a little extra but for me he was brought in as an additional body down the stretch that can contribute, rather than a game changer. I may be doing him a huge dis-service as its early days for him but that's how I see it at the moment and under those circumstances I'd rather see those who got us to the final, play in it.
For me, it would have to be Kearney. Only reason being he is the only player that did nothing to get us there. Just more fair I would say.Wouldnt want anyone else to be dropped for this game. Do love Kearney though. Think I'd like to see him back next year.
I just don't buy this 'the players that got us there should be on the ice and Kearney should sit' malarkey. Surely we want the best team possible on the ice? Kearney came here to help us win, not to sit out on a principal.
If they were good enough to get us there they should be good enough to win it. I'm sure it will seem fairer to the players too which can only be a good thing for team spirit.
I'd have to say Brine (otherwise benti or ulmer) only because the other players are used to playing in the BBT and I don't see the need for a defense center for that game.

Ulmer why not, I think the majority of the team from the BBT are still with us and have the experience in competing in that arena and does give him a chance to rest until Sunday's game. Is there anyone on this forum that thinks we would lose a game if 1 specific player is missing?
