I'm cool with giving Alternate Cs out until someone claims the captaincy. I think the only time the captaincy matters is when there is a true leader on a team. Those are very rare in my estimation. That rare combination of a player who knows how to lead in the locker room and also by their play. It's not enough to just be a lunch pale guy who can lead in the room -- or an elite player who can take over a game. A true leader is both and is very rare. If you don't have that player then captaincy by committee is, IMHO, more ideal.
So, i'm fine with just having As until someone steps up as that leader. And if that someone is Alexis Lafreniere.

It’s Quinn’s job to say they’re expecting to make the playoffs, I don’t really make anything of that
I put this in the other thread... but Panarin's head is definitely on a toddler's body.

Hey listen, its a short season. Everything is different. Anything is possible. They have the horses to make a run at it.
I just threw 100$ on them making the dance. Honestly think the chances are better than most think, but It's not like I'm expecting it.

I hope Quinn is right. I want more Angry Big **** Energy Buch this year.
its all just silly talk. u play to win each game and however good u are is where ull end up at the end of the season. expectations and goals dont mean anything.

annnnnd... that's why he's not Captain
going in with doubt already... Making the playoffs should be an expectation AND goal.
I look like that in every photo. I think he just doesn't know how to smile on command.

WAAAAAAA!!!
for sure but the what ifs need to deliver. we DO have much to be optimistic about! Barron is a player we are all looking forward to developing in a top tier 4th liner.

Next year it should be an expectation. We aren't there yet.

Just caught up and saw Mika had covid. People need to give him a very long leash this season bc it could significantly be affecting him for the actual entire season. All the chief symptoms might be gone in 2 months but it will likely negatively impact his ability to even get back to the right shape and put him a step behind for a very long time. His immune system organs and body have been through a war.

Cynical thing to say, I know, but if Buchnevich has a big year, it could turn into the best possible time to include him in a package for a star center like Eichel or PLD

If he wants to be a real leader and set the bar higher for the club , he would come out flying and paste at least one Isle after a few shoves at the opposing winger on the draw at first chance...let them know they are in for a GAME . We don't want a Jersey Devil /Ranger start of the period scrapfest....just let them know we won't be F'ed with . Can't wait.....geesh...I HATE the Fishsticks....annnnnd... that's why he's not Captain

Disagree. Being realistic is an important quality to have. Nothing wrong with being realistic here. He's 100% right. We aren't at that point where making the playoffs is the expectation.annnnnd... that's why he's not Captain

That's a scary but very possible thought. We as a society still don't know the lasting effects, but people have experienced things like not being able to think clearly. You can't play high-level hockey if your head is fuzzy.
