If either of Hudler or Cammalleri aren't cleared, the Flames keep Corban Knight or Max Reinhart up.

I'd put Sieloff and Wotherspoon in the running with Ramage for the last spot on defence.
as for lines, I believe the first line will be Glencross, Stajan and Stempniak as these guys will go up against the other team's first lines. Power against power.
Russell will be given a shot as a top four defenceman. I think he'll run into trouble trying to break up the cycle though, so his first instinct is to clear the puck quickly.
