The Ducks need to play with more balls. If Gudas as a captain helps with that, I'm all for it.

No, they need to play more with the puck

If the Leafs are such a joke, surely the fan of the only team to lose a playoffs series to the leafs in 20+ years should be in no position to chirp?

Holy reach hahaha. They have more cups in last 5 years then you do playoff series wins in the past 20.

it’s funny reading replies on certain threads because it’s so easy to tell who never actually played hockey before…

So anyways, there are certain players that are natural leaders and teammates listen to and respect in the locker room.. just cause they aren’t the best player on the team doesn’t mean they can’t be the captain… in this case Gudas is the guy in Anaheim…. And I guarantee if u ask the other players, they would 100% agree with the choice naming Gudas the captain

They're not going to get the puck if they don't battle harder more consistently

Gonna be another great season in Anaheim!

 

[PettersonHughes]

Reading online that he hasn't been suspended as much as in previous years, is he cleaner or does he just know how to toe the line now?

Gudas still living rent free in Toronto

That’s probably worth more than an NHL contract

Baby Radko would already be taking numbers.

he deserves it even if only for leading his hawkmen in support of flash gordon

I'm really puzzled by these decisions.

Like, maybe the respective organizations feel they have chosen the best man for the job, and maybe they are right.

But I feel like in these cases the best man is no man, and they should just go with all A's until a legit candidate emerges.

Derek MacKenzie with the Panthers is a recent example. Seems unnecessary when there's a good chance you could replace him within a year.

Bedard will more than likely be Blackhawks captain within a handful of seasons but Foligno was defacto captain already and is meant to be a stopgap of sorts. Gives the media someone to talk to instead of putting pressure on Bedsy and the younger guys.

He'll keep the C warm until they give it to Gauthier.
