Think it's overrated. Give it to Michel Therrien as punishment for screwing us over for so long.
I don`t doubt that nor his leadership qualities but where is the need for a captain at this point in time? The team doesn`t look to be good for a while and the burden of the C in my opinion helped expedite Pacioretty leaving town. Gallagher doesn`t need the C to be a leader.Gallagher is not your typical goal scorer, I'm pretty sure his game will not be influenced if he gets the C.
He will still give 110% game after game.
I doubt the C will affect his game, he will play even harder IMO.

Look at the results of the poll. Who is the Captain right now?What's the point in waiting? Waiting for what?

@Chili wasn’t the one who made the decision to wait...
Canadiens in no rush to name captain after Pacioretty trade
That claim was made the day Pacioretty was traded...
There's still time till the season begins to name someone captain.
I just don't see the point in waiting.
It's Gallagher(my choice) or Weber, you don't have a ton of choices.
And there's nothing screaming captain coming up apart probably Poehling but it will take some time till he earns the respect and stuff...
Well, Weber said it best where part of the wait is out of respect for Max. Otherwise, I don’t see the need to rush into it either. We have a couple options, but Bergevin is going to have to decide whether it’s a team decision of management/coaches. Until that decision is made, they have FAR more important things to do such as running the training camp and evaluating the team over the next few weeks.
Gio was a good captainHabs haven't had a captain since Koivu so go without a captain.
I think the natural choice is Gallagher though Weber is a strong possibility as well. Or just give it to Pleks as a pre-retirement gift.
Gallagher feels like the natural choice. Weber feels like the logical choice. Pick one, or even go a year or two without one.
