Re: WHO SHOULD BE THE CAPTAINS
Numminen who might not play like half the season?

Re: WHO SHOULD BE THE CAPTAINS
My opinion:
C - Campbell
A - Gaustad
A - Mair
Real life:
C - Hecht
A - Campbell
A - Lydman, Tallinder or Numminen (left open for his return)Comment

Re: WHO SHOULD BE THE CAPTAINS
Numminen is going to croak on the ice mid season
So how about Campbell (C)
Vanek (A)
Hecht (A)“You hold a players only meeting and get each guy to stand up and say what he can bring to the table... and if he doesn't, you punch him in the face.” ~~ Harry Neale, on how to fix the Sabres season.Comment

Re: WHO SHOULD BE THE CAPTAINS
I'd say Campbell gets the C
A's could be any 2 of the following... Gaustad, Lydman, Max, or maybe Vanek
Max needs to show some leadership now that he's one of the most tenured members of the team... and Vanek is perhaps the most talented, but he is still very young yet.
I guess Hecht would probably be considered for an A as well.
On NHL 08, I believe the captain is Teppo, with the A's going to Spacek and Hecht. There's something I'd really not like to see duplicated in reality.

Re: WHO SHOULD BE THE CAPTAINS
Has there ever been a goalie as the captain? I know it would be strange, but Miller really is the glue for this team, and the true "captain."
More realistically, I agree with most on the Campbell nod, but I don't think Vanek should be considered. He's going to have a lot of pressure on his shoulders as it is this season!Comment

Re: WHO SHOULD BE THE CAPTAINS
As we've discussed before, Miller can't be a captain, or we all agree, it should be his. Only the regular skaters are allowed to wear the C or the AComment

Re: WHO SHOULD BE THE CAPTAINS
Tallinder with an A, other than that I completely agree.Originally posted by shelbyComment

Re: WHO SHOULD BE THE CAPTAINS
If there's one topic where fans can never give an informed opinion, it's this. Choosing the leader of a team requires being in that locker room and on the ice. Anyone who thinks so-and-so should be (or shouldn't be) the captain is saying he knows that player better than his teammates and coach."It is better to be divided by truth than to be united by error." -- Martin Luther
