Chara to Bergeron to Marchand to McAvoy

I was a tad surprised they named one this season. That said, centennial season would be weird not to have one.

I already love how mad this is making dorks online, too.

I wanted McAvoy but I'm not bugged by Marchand being named, makes sense for him as well.

It will be interesting to see what they do with the A's as they've always had one guy with the permanent A and have been rotating the second since 2012 when Krejci and Kelly split it.

I’m real excited for the rat, and am definitely not biased.

I have no idea how i forgot McAvoy.

 

[BruinsJoe]

The best and only choice right now

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

The right choice all along.

I don't think Looch will be in the rotation to start since he's been gone for so long but I could see them giving it to him when they face his old teams or if he's going to hit a milestone.

He is so deserving to wear the “C” congrats to Brad for receiving the honor. The Centennial season looks to be a memorable one for the new captain while he is closing in on 1000 games, he has a number of other milestones within reach this season as well.

[Demon Eyes]

I am shocked and amazed. No one saw this coming

 

[NDiesel]

Congrats Marchy! Career year incoming from the rat

 

[bergeronsboys]

Love Marchy and really hope he takes it to another level wearing the C for the Bruins. He’s always defied expectations and he’ll have to never take a shift off again if he wants to follow up Bergeron!

 

[DaStinger]

Well deserved! All hail lord Marshmont!

I think McAvoy will have a full time A with Pasta and Carlo rotating the other. I'd bet Coyle will be in the mix, too. Lucic will be a vocal leader in the room but he won't see the ice in enough important situations to warrant a letter.


Big congrats to Marchand. I'm on record saying he wouldn't be my pick, but his emotions are something the team can rally behind. Now that it's official I'm excited to see him in the role, and more excited to see the rest of the league react lol. Probably going to need a Marchand jersey with the C now, too.

I love how 63 brings every other fanbase together in their hatred for him, It's f***ing hilarious how bent out of shape he makes these dweebs.

 

[trenton1]

The influence of Bergeron is immense. Seems to me that Brad really started really paying attention about 4-5 years ago and he is now captain material. Good choice. Looking forward to Charlie Mac taking it in a couple of years as well.

Love it!

I don't think it's really his decision.
