I think you are *woefully* underrating Aho's abilities as a leader.
To your point: Aho looks, to me, like a born leader. A guy who, from the day he came on the ice, said "I want to win, follow me." That's what a captain is, and from my perspective, he's the only guy on the team who has it (excepting Williams, obviously).
Probably. But it's also been a crazy offseason for a 22-year-old kid and I'm not excited about piling anything else on him at the moment. Maybe I'm overthinking this and it's a no-brainer, but I've seen a lot of young superstars get overwhelmed by too much, too fast. Makes me nervous.
