Devils Captain on Opening Night Will Be Bryce Salvador

[AZNDevil]

So is Zajac the new captain yet or not?

 

[Getzo5]

I would have said Zajac, but the Devils do not need another Parise situation. So, just give it to Kovy who's the Devils best player and most likely will be here next season.

The most ironic post this board has ever seen.

 

[tycobb]

Zajac already said in TG article today that he isn't going to be the captain.

 

[New Jersey Devils]

Maybe an A at least for Zajac?

 

[Bleedred]

I figured it would be Zajac. He would be a great captain, but I knew the team didn't wanna go down that route again like Zach last year cause it would be stupid. Now that he's locked up maybe?

 

[MartyOwns]

still should be kovy!

 

[Basement Cat]

still should be kovy!

yup..

 

[Bleedred]

I think it could be Zajac even though he said so himself that he wouldn't be. The way he was talking in that interview this morning it almost seemed like he was hoping to land in Minnesota to play with Zach again! Meanwhile he had already been signed! I'm glad I read that article after it was announced that he had signed the contract!

 

[Desert Devil]

Kovy as Captain. Elias and Sal as alternates. In a few years we'll be looking at Kovy as C with Zajac and Henrique as alternates.

Pretty much.

Maybe have rotating A's between Sal and Zajac.

 

[FirmestPiano]

Really hope it's Kovy.

 

[Cowbell232]

I really don't see Kovy *wanting* to be the captain.

I think he likes the pressure to play too much to have the pressure of captaincy - dealing with player issues, etc. On the other hand, you have a loyalist like Clarky, who played for PDB in the past, loves Lou, is settling down in NJ, and has experience in the player relationship department as the NHLPA rep... That's the kind of guy who WANTS to be captain...

 

[R8Devs]

I wouldn't want someone who racks up PIMs like Clarkson as captain. And unless Clarkson is a ufa after this season so yeah.

I don't think I could judge Kovy's intentions but he never said he didn't want to be captain and he was just captain of his team in the KHL.

Someone said this morning all signs point to Salvador

 

[Devils Trap]

Someone said this morning all signs point to Salvador

Chere did .TG said none of it is confirmed

 

[hlaverty06]

Watch from 2:30 on. I'd love to have him as our captain.



Fayne: "Ah ****"

This makes me want Kovy as captain

 

[BadFella]

If and when Kovy becomes Cap'n, Doc had better make sure not to call him Kovalsuck again.

 

[SKNJD9]

Watch from 2:30 on. I'd love to have him as our captain.

Kovy was a captain in both Atlanta and Team Russia, why he cant be here? He is a leader all and through.

 

[NJDevs26]

It's amazing there's still real suspense as to who's going to be the C. I can't remember the last time that was the case here.

 

[Saugus]

I could get on board with this. Maybe Larsson might get an A eventually too.

Kovy was a captain in both Atlanta and Team Russia, why he cant be here? He is a leader all and through.

He was also captain at CSKA just for this season during the lockout.

 

[Oroku Saki*]

Talbot: How that feel?

Volch: Ahyayyaeye?

I still love you Jamie.

Scott Stevens PIMs were cut in half after being named captain.
