Huh. I'm trying to figure out how to do a poll thingamy...........
For who anybody thinks might be our next leader.???
Ovi is done.
Backus is gone
Oshie is fucked.
Patches isn't even a question.
Willy pretty much fucked himself.
That leaves, out of the "old guard".......... O-O ..... Dylan. Yes, Mr Volcano himself, is our only hope. :lmao:
You know what? If there was a viscious rumour going round that he turns up at practices early to train with some of our sproglets, I'd be pretty happy with that. Does he?
The only other candidate, in my eyes, is Chucky.
We have a hand full of old, tired, bored, lazy vets and a gaggle of headless chicken sproglets, with no guidance or direction.
I'm starting to have serious questions about Carbs........
Surreylily:
I say go emergency and bring back this guy
:bad:

Well when you say leader...do you mean Captain? Tom Wilson is a leader on this team, as is JC. I expect he or John Carlson will next wear the C, but Johnny might be done the same time as Ovi.
Lindy..no...he might not even be here after next year.. He is a UFA after next season. And you can't have a goalie as team captain even if you wanted to (which you wouldn't)
If you just mean leader and not Captain, then again...Wilson and Carlson are both leaders on and off the ice. Wilson is pretty active in the community and with multiple charities as well.. Sure some of that is image building and marketing, but he does seem a genuinely decent fellow.
I don't understand what you mean when you say Wilson F'd himself?
Wilson and Strome are committed long term to this team. I expect Wilson will be the next team Captain, but Ovie has two more years (at least) so who knows what other veterans this team will acquire in the next two full seasons.
As far as Carbs..I think he has done an excellent job with the assets at his disposal. Most of the young guys have taken a step forward this year and that's what this team needed. You can't blame the coach when your old guys just get older....and older...and slower.
