Speculation: If New Captain next year - Who

[TiCats]

David Desharnais.

Character player, french and a Bill Masterton nominee. He has a Bergevin contract; he is the team's top line centre; he has the respect of the coaching staff; he has the respect of his team.

Book it.

 

[TravisF]

PK Subban, he leads the team on the ice with his play, especially in the playoffs. He is also the most skilled Canadiens player.

 

[CaptainBenn]

Did he play in all six games against the Rangers? What happened to the player who was so hot in the previous two rounds? Did he peak too early?

What? Was he supposed to win the cup all by himself?

 

[Stive Morgan]

It will probably be Gorges, but I want

Subban - C
Plekanec - A
Gorges - A

 

[Runner77]

I would suggest a system of alternating captains, as follows:

C - David Desharnain
A - Francis Bouillon
C- René Bourque
A - Daniel Brière

 

[Hackett]

Subban and Gorges would probably be the most comfortable with it.

Thing with Subban is that MT would have to change his approach with him if he had the C, and that might hurt his chances

 

[NobleSix]

Players vote for the captain, so if the players like that rah rah ******** from Gorges then he will be captain. If not, It will be someone else.

 

[habtastic]

Can one vote for oneself? Cuz Gorges sure likes the sound of his voice.

 

[Rosso Scuderia]

I'd give that responsibility to Subban but if Gorges stays, he's gonna be the one that the TEAM will choose.

 

[highstick14*]

Should and will be Plekanec.

 

[Constable]

Price/Subban

 

[vokiel]

You don't make a goalie captain, period. It's a really bad idea and Luongo's case was convincing enough for me.

 

[the]

I'd rather keep Gionta captain if his replacement is supposed to be that media puppet Gorges.

 

[JLP]

David Desharnais.

Character player, french and a Bill Masterton nominee. He has a Bergevin contract; he is the team's top line centre; he has the respect of the coaching staff; he has the respect of his team.

Book it.

You know, with the Therrien four-year extension I would not be totally surprised if this happened.

 

[MD thaivuN]

If you don't have an ideal candidate for Captaincy, do not name a captain until he appears to you.

 

[Cedream]

If you don't have an ideal candidate for Captaincy, do not name a captain until he appears to you.

Voila!

And seriously if DD his name captain im ****ing quitting

 

[Smokey Thompson]

Subban C
Gorges A
Markov A

 

[PuckSeparator]

Josh Gorges will be captain imo. I think Subban should wear it but he can be a divisive personnality and it will put the spotlight even more on him so it might not be the best idea. In the end it doesn't matter as the natural leaders will always shine through.

 

[sventington]

I was against the idea for a long time, but I am coming around to the notion of Subban as captain.

 

[samsquanch9*]

Maurice Richard, Jean Beliveau, Josh Gorges... please pick PK

 

[sharks9]

The captain should be whoever the players choose as captain because they know better than anyone who's the best leader

 

[David_99]

The captain should be whoever the players choose as captain because they know better than anyone who's the best leader

In that case, I hope they vote for Stamkos.

 

[Kimota]

Do or die , never quit, momentum changing, articulate, professional, walk the walk type guys should never be captain.

You forgot:

"skating like a headless chiken"

"on-ice maturity of a 10 years old"

"not knowing when to pinch"

"being distracted easily by words from opponants"

"being a good actor"

It's like people are so blinded by their love of a player that they forgot about things like logic. And what is the role of a captain.

Watch Steve Yzerman, Johathan Toews, Mark Messier, these guys are Captain.

pls dont make gorges captain, he'd probably start wearing a habs version of the captain america uniform to practice
