Confirmed with Link: Barkov Named Captain

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

I am happy for Barkov but a captain is just a captain. The important thing is:



we are no longer going to be regularly playing the worst player in hockey. Florida is going to ass a couple extra points just by his subtraction, he's that bad.

 

[JP Mick]

Fantastic!

 

[VerhaegheAintAverage]

I'm very happy. Barkov has always exemplified the Panthers for me in recent years and I can't wait to see how this plays out. I think there might be a game streaming tonight at a UK-friendly time?

MacKenzie is dominating your mind right now dude

 

[Vilam]

Awesome. Well deserved, and I think it'll be good for Barky as well. Nice feel good video as well

I meant add but ass comes to mind whenever I talk about Dmac

To quote myself from draft night 2013, "I'm so happy".

This just further solidifies Barkov's position as Mr. Franchise. He might be an awkward manchild, but he's our awkward manchild. And now he's our captain.

I’m a new to posting on the HF Boards but have been a follower for years, I agree with you and I was at the draft in NJ. The Panthers flew me and my son to NJ for the draft and I was in the Panther’s suite with Yorkmark and the owner. We got to meet Barkov right after he got drafted and took photos with him. Very cool!

BossBarkov ? BigBossBarkov ?

BabyBorg(strom)ov ? BabyBorgov sounds cool lol...

Toddler Spacey ?... Okay, red card for me, I'm out ! lol

Kid Barkov -> Wins a playoff series
Teenage Barkov -> Wins his first Selke
Young Adult Barkov -> Wins the Stanley Cup
Adult Barkov -> Scores a hatter

Only bad thing about this is I have to buy a brand new jersey.

Just buy the C and sew it on yourself or have someone who knows how to sew do it(if you can't).

 

[Beezer]

Bravo to the Panthers for passing the torch to the young core. Barkov deserves this, couldn't be happier for him and our team moving forward.

This really says to the young core, "This is your team!". Now let's see them really put it all on the ice for their new captain!

How does this effect Haley playing?

 

[austropanther]

Nik Lidström was never considered a vocal guy in the Detroit dressing room, there were others around to do that (Dealer, Maltby...).

Awesome news, congrats Oh-so-Finnish-Barky!

 

[FinlandPanther]

I don’t even have the new jersey. I was content with my older one, but now I must change.

Oh no, you know what this calls for people. Bring out the alligator boots pic!

 

[BB88]

In not so surprising new the guy hasn't even updated his pages.
No mentions on twitter/IG of becoming C.

 

[Drugs Delaney]

He’s been their first line center since his first game in the league. He’s earned it imo.

 

[Stanley Cup Boundd]

Oh no, you know what this calls for people. Bring out the alligator boots pic!

 

[Drugs Delaney]

He doesn’t have to be vocal to get the team to rally behind him. He’s easily their best player.

 

[Stanley Cup Boundd]

Yorkmark was full of himself, very similar to the red boots photo.

The perfect hockey player off the ice wouldn't be a criminal suspect.

I understand the point, but it was speeding ticket. Not optimal but hardly a character fault.

 

[Albatros]

I think driving 65 mph in town is also a character issue, a young kid with too much money leading to reckless behavior.

Lebron James
Speed Recorded: 101 mph
Speed Limit: 65 mph
Car: '08 Mercedes-Benz
Location: Ohio

Alexander Ovechkin
Speed Recorded: 165 mph
Speed Limit: Unknown
Car: Mercedes-Benz AMG
Location: Washington D.C.


Damn character issues I tell you.

 

[Albatros]

LeBron was speeding on Interstate 71, not downtown Cleveland. The risk of killing someone at such speeds is very real in built-up areas and Barkov either was too stupid to realize that or just didn't care. Neither reflects well on his personality.

Fair enough. I see it more as a stupid young man thing but I can understand your POV too.

We'd need to know if he routinely drives like that or was it a one time 'I'll try how fast this thing accelerates' thing. Neither is good but other is more bad.
