Confirmed with Link: Valiquette with a cryptic comment on our captains/alternates

[FoxyClean]

Initial thought is Kreider will be receiving the C soon.

I don't know if I like the idea of giving the C to anybody this season.

 

[Kords]

Pretty much means Kreider getting the C. Giving the A to Lindgren over Foxxx would be interesting though

Like grabbing one of the crew of the Titanic and handing him the hat after the iceberg

Context.

Will add it to the OP, thanks.

 

[NYR Viper]

We don’t know how it is inside the room, and that’s all that really matters honestly. To me, it’s either Trouba or Kreider

 

[Crease]

I read that to mean someone with a letter may be on his way out.

Can’t see Kreider getting the C at this point. He would have been named already, no? Plus the coach is halfway out the door, why now, unless it’s coming from the GM’s office?

Unless Lindgren is getting the C

I'm still sure Kreider is the soul of the team and usually acts like the 'big brother'. When Kreider goes, so do the Rangers.

I can't see them being ready to make a trade involving one of our NMC guys that Vally was somehow privy to, and felt it was okay to hint about. A lot going on there.

Kreider getting the C makes the most sense. I would just rather wait until next season to see if Trouba takes more hold or Lafreniere is ready to take the team by the scruff.

The only ‘A’ that may be able to be traded would be Zib, no? Kreider, Panarin, Trouba and Zib are the A’s or am I forgetting someone

 

[NoQuitInNewMexico]

I've shilled for a Mika trade here a few times to a top team with a good center prospect (Knights/Krebs, Avs/Newhook, Caps/McMichael) so they can get two playoff runs with the guy, but it would be a dick move to hint that on twitter imo. If he "knows something" it's gotta be the team giving the C to someone.

 

[Machinehead]

It doesn't need to be at anyone's expense. They've run five letters before.

 

[Kords]

Meh, it's pretty obvious what he's implying and a much more fun conversation than the usual cesspool of talking points.

No way would Vally make that remark about a trade rumor, btw.

 

[Kords]

He said he knows "who and how" in response to giving half the team a letter. Not that it disproves what you said, but the wording makes it seem unlikely.

Valiquette is a massive troll

 

[East Coast Bias]

Only a Ryan can be captain. Been that way for a decade. It’s a clause. Everyone knows that. Not just Vally

 

[Rongomania]

Valiquette is a massive troll

And he let in 10 goals once.

 

[Mac n Gs]

You know who we don’t consider enough as a captain option? Adam Fox.

That being said just give Laf some time and name him captain in a year or so.

 

[Machinehead]

And he let in 10 goals once.

That's true.

I love Valiquette but he seems like exactly the type of dude who would see curiosity in the comments and play it up a bit.

 

[Fitzy]

And he let in 10 goals once.

The reason he's never been pulled is because he was only playing on Hank's determined days off

Agree w this take.

 

[Mike in Houston]

Kreider should be the 'C'.
