Koivu was a good captain, but he will never have his number retired. Retired numbers should only go to Hall of Fame players.
Having said all that, I would sign him to a one year contract and have him retire a Hab. Let Gionta go, and have Koivu be captain for the next year, as a bridge captain.
Koivu should have his # retired here - that's how good he played for the HABS ie. when he was injured in the 2006 playoffs the HABS were Winning going away - the Team went flat after that- he was a true leader - but I agree sign Koivu for 1 year and let Gionta go .
