thegx.ca Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Thinking they will and they should since with Gaudreau/Tkachuk/Monahan gone the only Calgary veteran left is Backlund... So I'm thinking it'll be Backlund as captain with Tanev and Lucic alternating...I think Lucic would be the best captain but there hasn't been a heavyweight captain in the NHL since who knows when... This off season saw such huge changes that this Calgary leadership group has totally changed too with what we have left being a leadership group more of a Sutter style leadership group remaining...I see Coleman along with Lewis and Toffoli being among the leaders of this team too...and definitely the future leaders will be Huberdeau and Kadri...

thegx.ca Posted October 8, 2022 Author Share Posted October 8, 2022 Well so far Backlund Tanev Coleman and Kadri have worn the A in preseason...but no Looch yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegx.ca Posted October 16, 2022 Author Share Posted October 16, 2022 Coach confirms Tanev and Backlund will wear permanent A and Lindholm and Huberdeau will rotate an A saying those with Cup rings don't need a letter...it's looking obvious that Huberdeau is going to be the captain one day at least he's being given the chance to be this teams captain in the future like Iginla before him...

Leaders let the players in the room know who they are and that they're the leaders. Whether they wear letters or not. And whatever Sutter doing it working...for first 3 games of season at least haha... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
