Markov

Leafs fan coming in peace here, I was just wondering what you guys think about Markov's leadership, do you guys think he would make a better captain than Gionta?

Too quiet to be a captain.
While you don't need to be overly loud, a captain need to make at least more noise than the sound of paint drying.

Absolutely! Don't listen to haters. Very few Habs fans actually understand the impact Markov has on this team. He always leads by example (and how many times have we seen him talk strategy with Subban, he's not as quiet right now as he used to be).

Nothing against Gionta but Markov would have been a better captain. Nobody understands more what wearing the CH means.

A few years back after Koivu's departure, Markov was offered the C - it was strongly hinted. He declined. He's long preferred to be the second-in-command, not the one at the helm.

You look at players that Markov has a great history with.

Komisarek, Emelin

Somewhat of a theme there.
