jammer2 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 Well, it look's as if the Ave's know who the "man" is going forward. The Lanche made Gabriel Landeskog the youngest NHL Captain EVER today, taking the title of youngest ever captain from Sidney Crosby (who took it from Stevie Y). I think it's a good choice. Hedjuk did not look like captain material last year, so it seemed like an obvious choice to hand the reigns over to the kid. He plalyed like a vet as a 18/19 year old last year, played in every crucual situation for the Ave's, pk, pp top line...you name it, he did it. Love the physical edge this kid brings. At 17 in the OHL, this kid was ripped, I mean chisled....looked like he had the body of a 27 year old weight lifter...lol. He turns the ripe ol age of 20 in mid November.http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=404504 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jammer2 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 @Podein25 I remember the first time I saw Lane McDermid play for the Spits....and realized it was Paul McDermid's kid who I had watched decades earlier...it really hit me hard....I am in fact ancient...LOL!

Podein25 Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 @jammer2Wow that IS old, lol. Well, you're as young as you feel, as they say. Which puts me at about 12 yrs old with 100 yr-old knees. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
