Zajac already said in TG article today that he isn't going to be the captain.

I figured it would be Zajac. He would be a great captain, but I knew the team didn't wanna go down that route again like Zach last year cause it would be stupid. Now that he's locked up maybe?

I think it could be Zajac even though he said so himself that he wouldn't be. The way he was talking in that interview this morning it almost seemed like he was hoping to land in Minnesota to play with Zach again!:laugh: Meanwhile he had already been signed! I'm glad I read that article after it was announced that he had signed the contract!

I really don't see Kovy *wanting* to be the captain.

I think he likes the pressure to play too much to have the pressure of captaincy - dealing with player issues, etc. On the other hand, you have a loyalist like Clarky, who played for PDB in the past, loves Lou, is settling down in NJ, and has experience in the player relationship department as the NHLPA rep... That's the kind of guy who WANTS to be captain...

I wouldn't want someone who racks up PIMs like Clarkson as captain. And unless Clarkson is a ufa after this season so yeah.

I don't think I could judge Kovy's intentions but he never said he didn't want to be captain and he was just captain of his team in the KHL.

Kovy was a captain in both Atlanta and Team Russia, why he cant be here? He is a leader all and through.

It's amazing there's still real suspense as to who's going to be the C. I can't remember the last time that was the case here.

Kovy as Captain. Elias and Sal as alternates. In a few years we'll be looking at Kovy as C with Zajac and Henrique as alternates.

I could get on board with this. Maybe Larsson might get an A eventually too.

He was also captain at CSKA just for this season during the lockout.
