Speculation: Who will be the next Rangers Captain?

[Tob]

Mckegg

this idea doesn't have the leges to go the distance

Mckegg tenure here was always popping into the lineup when we needed him the least.

The person to be captain needs charisma and has to be a natural leader. The kind of person people have to answer to if they screw up and gets the locker room fired up. Laffy, Trocheck, Fox, Panarin, Kreider (if he stays) are all good players but are all soft spoken avoiding the spot light. I was talking to a fellow R fan tonight and he said when Messier came on the team he took his locker and moved it right to the center of the locker room, he was in charge - if you screwed up you answered to him and he was a leader. Then Leetch became his right hand man. How can the Rangers get that kind of leadership? Right now only through a trade.

I vote Jonny Brodzinski

Letters are mostly symbolic: leaders will lead with or without them.

The only player on this team who might need a letter is Trochek. Cuz he's gonna yap the refs no matter what and a letter on him helps lower risk of unneeded penalties

 

[Captain Lindy]

I'd like to see Vinny but I don't want him to get traded.

 

[duhmetreE]

If it’s not evident. Don’t pick one

Imo of the players here now it’s most likely Trocheck.

I like Schneider for it . I think we are going to see him much more involved and a bit more physical and he will at least back it up by dropping the gloves if challenged ,He could be the biggest winner in the Trouba deal. He is young but has put some years in here and we know he is not feeble or a coward .

. Schneider -Laf-Cuylle....they have the rest of the season to lay claim .

Said it before, not just giving it to Fox is galaxy brain.

Igor is more dominant than Fox. Igor may not want it but after this contract it's his team. I don't care that he's a goalie.

 

[Savant]

Maybe wait until after the trade deadline. Def feels like the dust has not settled yet

 

[Peltz]

Maybe the reason why we keep having to trade our captains is because we give the C to non-elite players?

It actually says volumes that our so-called "elite" players have not been considered captain material in over a decade.

 

[duhmetreE]

at this point, make it Mika so we can trade him mid-season

 

[Whoot Whoot]

#50 in a few years

 

[McRanger92]

I want to change my vote to Will Cuylle. He's the only guy on the roster whose play has been that of a leader, since Drury called the team out. The rest has been meaningless lip service to the media.

 

[hackeyman]

We don't need to name a captain now. The natural leader will reveal himself through his actions.

 

[Hire Sather]

McDavid

 

[bleedblue94]

I don't think the next Captain is on the current roster.

 

[RangersFan1994]

Give it Lafy. He is the new core. Start now

While we’re on the subject, this Karl Marx, Frederick Engels theory on all these Assistant Captains has got to go.
Three “A”s until a Captain is picked and then two after.
Don’t give anyone the “C” and make Quick their unofficial captain.
