i don't think we overpaid so im good. faber & buium might be like watching mcdavid & draisaitl!

Outside of contracts and minutes and points and... just hockey in general... he strikes me as just a good person / cool dude. I'm thrilled to have him on the team for the long haul. When spurg eventually hangs it up it's going to be quite the debate between Ek and Faber wearing the C

Just move the C now

To Ek? No disagreements here. But then we will be arguing Faber v ek in 2 or 3 years. Conundrum...

Good right handed defensemen are hard to find.

[Dickie Dunn]

Love it and Guerin should thank him every day for getting so good so quick.

From the outside looking in, it seems like Faber has more captain potential than Ek does. Everybody loves EK and he leads by example on the ice, but I get the feeling that he is a goof ball (in a good way) in the dressing room, not really the quality you want in someone wearing the "C".

I still might be in the minority thinking that the "C" barely matters.

It really doesn't matter all that much.

If i was ever gonna buy another jersey he'd be on it, but that won't happen lol. Glad to have him locked up.
