okay so assuming orpik doesnt come back, who gets the alternate captain title?
backstrom is already an alternate captain
backstrom is already an alternate captain
Can I vote for Orpik?
I voted Carlson.
Seems like this team has a lot of great candidates though. Niskanen, Holtby, or Oshie would also be great.
ThisOshie. Unless they want a defenseman to have an 'A', then Carlson.
Goalies can be captains, they just can't skate out to talk with the refs the same way. Louongo was a captain for the Canucks for a couple years. It's definitely very unusual, though.
I know, and that means you're not really the captain per the rules. They can name someone admiral, too. Doesn't mean anything.
