I think with Carter they were looking for a sniper not named Neal. Given he also plays center, he wins out over Neal. Richards is made redundant with Toews.

So who takes captaincy? Sid 100%? Maybe Captain Serious? Who are your picks if different? Discuss!
I think the way Thornton can distribute the puck would make up for his lack of speed , they were too strong down the middle though
