JustBeLazy he picked Derek Stepan and Arizona has much better players plus he picked Bergeron as well not the best player on an amazing team, and if you don’t change your mind from that then he picked Duncan Keith as well he isn’t very good and is getting up there in age
Definitely. Would probably also fix the issues some players have had with Risto being too dedicated to training, which is pretty weird. Him being captain, his dedication would turn into leading by example.

Manraj Sahi he’s going to be retired or signed somewhere else within the next 2-3 years. If Bo wasn’t in the picture the smart choice would of been to wait and see what youngster matured and becomes a leader in the locker room first.
For the caps, I might choose TJ Oshie. I just think Backstrom is the “obvious” choice but Oshie is such a good player and person that I think he’d do great
As a Stars fan, I’m torn between Seguin and Pavs. I like your choice in Pavelski, but I do feel like it would be Segs. Since his start in Dallas, he’s matured a lot and is looked up to as a leader. If Benn is moved to another team in the near future, I do believe we would have 3 A’s until someone absolutely stands out in being a leader. Nice video :)
Seeing Pavs on the Stars hurt, especially considering what he did for us in the playoffs. He was my favorite player and I hope he comes back like Marleau! Also am I the only Sharks fan that thinks if Couture wasn't captain it should be Vlasic? He holds himself like a leader.
6:50 Malkin has worn the C when Crosby has been out with injuries. Letang has gotten it for a few games as well as Kunitz when he was still with Pittsburgh. Just wanted to throw that little nugget out there, but Letang would be my choice for Pittsburgh.
Samir Raza hell no no disrespect but just because he’s been with the team for a long time doesn’t mean he should get captain that’s like saying loui eriksson is a good captain lol
@@gar7266 edler is the best defenseman on the team. He plays in all situations. And he knows what it takes to win. Since he's the only remaining Canucks who was a part of the 2011 cup run

@@mikeyyyy7896 Skeji really, Good 2 way Dman, really. It should be Mika but they are going to wait too see if Kakko is all he is hyped as and if so give it to him.
I’d say Josh Bailey for NYI, he’s a veteran presence for the team, but Barzal is a great young player who will likely score 30+ this season. Both would be good picks for the C
Just watched this video for the first time. Of the five teams that have since named new captains you were right on four of them. NJD, NYR and OTT still up in the air
crazy how much things change over the years. since you made this video: eichel, ekman-larson, jones, keith, matt tkachuk traded suter bought out trochek left in free agency stepan changed teams twice brady tkachuk given captain
Nico as captain is definitly a great choice just along with his personnality and leader of a team that really needs it at such young age. Zajac might got it tough and then later, Hischier
OhNyquist’s List: Anaheim Ducks: Adam Henrique Arizona Coyotes: Derek Stepan Boston Bruins: Patrice Bergeron Buffalo Sabres: Rasmus Dahlin Calgary Flames: Matt Tkachuk Carolina Hurricanes: Jaccob Slavin Chicago Blackhawks: Duncan Keith Colorado Avalanche: Nate Mackinnon Columbus Blue Jackets: Seth Jones Dallas Stars: Joe Pavelski Detroit Redwings: Dylan Larkin Edmonton Oilers: Leon Draisaitl Florida Panthers: Vincent Trocheck LA Kings: Drew Doughty Minnesota Wild: Ryan Suter Montreal Canadiens: Brendan Gallagher Nashville Predators: Ryan Ellis New Jersey Devils: Nico Hischier New York Islanders: May Barzal New York Rangers: Mika Zibanejad Ottawa Senators: Thomas Chabot Philadelphia Flyers: Sean Couturier Pittsburgh Penguins: Evgeni Malkin San Jose Sharks: Erik Karlsson St. Louis Blues: Ryan O’Reilly Tampa Bay Lightning: Victor Hedman Toronto Maple Leafs: Auston Matthews Vancouver Canucks: Elias Pettersson Vegas Golden Knights: Mark Stone Washington Capitals: Nick Backstrom Winnipeg Jets: Mark Scheifele
When Sidney Crosby is out everyone knows that Evgeni Malkin becomes the team’s captain. He always takes the step up putting up points and it’s been statistically proven that the team does better when Crosby is out and Malkin still is playing than vice versa. Dude could’ve been a number one center anywhere else but stayed in Pittsburgh playing behind Crosby. Mad respect for him definitely could’ve been a captain.
I like Chabot and Tkachuk as options for a potential Sens captain but after seeing him play this year I really think the right choice is Jean-Gabriel Pageau, provided they can get him signed.
I know some of my fellow Sens fans would disagree with me, but I think Jean-Gabriel Pageau would make a really good captain. He's a local guy, and he can score a lot of goals, and now he has a bigger role with the team because Duchene's gone. He's the Sens leader in goals right now. They gotta re-sign him and give him that 'C'.
Maybe Domi would be a better captain for the Canadiens? I feel like players that are rabble rousers on the ice like Gallagher aren't the best fit to be team captains. Domi plays with an edge, but it's different than Gallagher's edge.
I like your list, but I think Kyle Palmieri for the Devils would have been a better pick. He's a New Jersey native and plays with a lot of heart. Also, that's no disrespect to Nico Hischier, he's awesome. He will be a great alternate captain.
I think Reilly is closer to being Captain than Matthews. He's the permanent A and Matthews just alternates with Marner. I do think they always planned for Matthews to be Captain though until JT was drafted.
Personally as an Islanders fan I would probably say Boychuck or Bailey for captain. I do see Barzal as an eventual captain but I would not rush him to that role.
The Caps would have to be TJ Oshie. Why? Because when they resigned him a few years back they did it because (besides the obvious being a great player & a guy that can get you a handful of extra points via the shoot-out throughout the season) he is a fantastic locker room guy. Word is he really works his teammates up, always has a good word for everyone. A never say die winner's work ethic and has an infectious PMA that spreads throughout the team. Exactly the type of leader many teams could use or want to pin the "C" on.
Karlsson was traded for and has played two seasons for the sharks. As a sharks fan I 100% guarentee the next captain of the sharks if he's still around is hertl. Literally no question
I wouldn't pick Dahlin for the Sabres. He is fantastic for us, but he seems timid at times and doesn't really appear to have that leadership quality. I'd say let Risto or Skinner
I would’ve named Filppula as their captain for this season. He was there when Lidström lift the cup with guys like Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Franzen, Draper, Rafalski... He is one of the classiest players in the league and a great role model for young players and the future captain Larkin.
@@proclubseditor8237 I think the wings over the more modern era have had a culture of naming captain who will be captain for a long haul. I'd say that naming Bert would be more likely in that case depending on how his production looks. I'd put Mantha those 'effort' questions weren't around for the last few years.
If the Canucks had to choose a captain other than Horvat, it would be Alex Edler without any doubt. As much as I agree Elias Pettersson is a superstar and a future captain in the making, he shouldn’t even be in consideration at this point. None of that extra pressure is worth it, and he can be a leader in the locker room without a letter on his chest. Alex Edler has been the heart and soul of the D core since 2008. Guy’s been a 20+ minute guy for over a decade, has been groomed alongside the 2 greatest canucks ever, and represents the team identity. The tenure, the accomplishments and the efficiency he still has makes him by far the frontrunner for the C if Horvat wasn’t captain. It’s not even close.
I thought Vegas was gonna be William karlsson, and the stars should be Tyler Seguin. Kirby dach will probably wind up being hawks captain after toews leaves, cuz Keith's probably gone around the same time toews is gone
I think Carlson would take over. I love backstrom but the Caps are not in a good cap situation and i think backstrom will be a ufa. Also Carlson is not only a great defensemen but he gets it done offensively too. Has a long term deal it makes sense
I think the one wearing the C for the Canadiens should be Matthew Peca! Go Tampa Bay Lighting! I think the one wearing the C for the Lightning should be Tyler Johnson
Do best undrafted player for each team.
That would be a great vid
I agree
I hope that vid gets made
@@austinglaser6152 forgot to switch account's lol

Yes!
GIVE LARKIN THE "C"!
Your Wish is granted
The C on Gally looks so good
Montreal Canadiens new captain Brendan Gallagher
Def
There's be outrage if he isn't picked
well if they had too yes but for now shea weber has a lot of experience and has been captain for 9 years
personally, a Tkachuk being captain sort of irks me so I would go with Monahan for Calgary
Kris G I agree or Johnny hockey
100% agree with Monahan. Tkachuk is definitely perfect player to wear A.
Totally agree
100%
Totally agree 100%
Definilty a lot of “best player getting the C”, which isn’t how it should be and doesn’t really make any sense.
JustBeLazy he picked Derek Stepan and Arizona has much better players plus he picked Bergeron as well not the best player on an amazing team, and if you don’t change your mind from that then he picked Duncan Keith as well he isn’t very good and is getting up there in age
He picked Dahlin for the Sabres. I got lost after that. He’s only 19. He wouldn’t be able to lead
Crosby started leading at the age of 19 once Mario retired a 2nd time. Crosby is one if not the best captain in the NHL.
@@randyhildebrant3809 the Avs gave the C to Landeskog at the age of 19.
That's kinda how it is now, frustrating to see someone like Eichel get the C etc.
Personally, as a leafs fan, I thought Morgan Riley should be capitan next
He went with best player that have the captain already for basically all of them. Not based on leadership necessarily.
Yeah
What about marner?
Yes
Bergy is pretty much captain, or the most non-captain captain of all time
Yeah literally messier standard captain without the c
Yep
Erik Johnson is hands down the runner up for Colorado behind Mack. He's just too good of a leader in that locker room.
Logan Primera E.J has been there for a while and knows a lot about the players, he’s a great leader in and out of the locker room.
@Logan Primera the captain is the leader of the locker room, not necessarily the best player skill wise. EJ is a huge leader in that group
Canadian Ninja I feel like he does think the captains are always the best player.
The picture you used for eichel made me laugh
Haha I knew someone would like that
Same lol
Ryan Donzy same lol 1:33
Yeah, he’s an ugly fuck hahaha.
Trying to get into a bar when you're wasted.
I would say zajac for new jersey, super nice dude and has been with the team for a long time and a solid player
Goobernater81 Zajac or Blake Coleman. Its weird that Andy Greene is the Captain
Rich N not weird, veteran who’s been with NJ his whole career, solid d man too
I’d choose Rielly over Matthews tbh
Matthews lost it by being a drunk weenie.
Fax
The problem with electing Patrick Kane as a possible captain for the Blackhawks is that he doesn’t want to be a captain.
I wouldnt put him cus the uh hum *She said no-oh*
@beatzyFN that’s true as well
BeatzyFN but also those were false accusations
I would definitely put Rasmus Ristolainen as captain over Rasmus Dahlin.
Definitely. Would probably also fix the issues some players have had with Risto being too dedicated to training, which is pretty weird. Him being captain, his dedication would turn into leading by example.
Erik Johnson is also another good option for the Avs' C
I’d have John Carlson as captain if it weren’t for ovi
I can see that but I also think Oshie would be good
Backstrom
I’d give it to Wilson

ethan jackson I mean rn it’s boro. He actually wants to be here
Welp
Zach Parise for Wild, he already had been one as well
Staal
aka Jibs my pick as well, Zach is a great leader!
For the Canucks as a Canucks fan I would go with Alex Edler. He has great leadership and has been on the the Canucks the longest.
Manraj Sahi he’s going to be retired or signed somewhere else within the next 2-3 years. If Bo wasn’t in the picture the smart choice would of been to wait and see what youngster matured and becomes a leader in the locker room first.

What about Coots?

@@mikeyyyy7896 travis konecny
but what about Gritty?
“Eichel will be captain for awhile” that did not age well
The fact that Chara is the Bruins' captain and not Bergeron tells a lot about how much of a honorable man Chara is
and of how much a class act Patrice is.
I don’t disagree with backstrom but he doesn’t really seem like the leader type, so imo I would pick Oshie or Wilson
Mateo C WILSON
Not Wilson he gets suspended every month but if he doesn’t it’s because he’s suspended
G06 HE HASNT BEEN SUSPENDED IN 1 SEASON, HES A 20 GOAL SCORER AND HES A GOOD LOCKER ROOM GUY AND IS A GOOD LEADER LEARN A NEW JOKE!

@@mikeyyyy7896 Skeji really, Good 2 way Dman, really. It should be Mika but they are going to wait too see if Kakko is all he is hyped as and if so give it to him.
Big CBJ fan, Foligno will be captain for a while but I think Atkinson would be solid choice
for vancouver i’d give it to Edler. he’s been here since like 09 and has been a great leader for our D core
I would go with Boeser or Pettersson but Edler isn't a bad choice either.
Lots of FANTASTIC captains apparently
Elias Pettersson pronounced E LEE US Pettersson. Also best captain from every team!!!!
Seguin.
You said basically the same thing for every captain
For Chicago, Duncan Keith will most likely retire at least 3-4 years before Toews or Kane
Did my own list right before watching. We matched 17/31. A couple I don't agree with but it's subjective so, no harm done. Fun video!
Really love the vids! Keep up the good work
I woulda picked Radulov for the Stars, he's definitely the glue guy in Dallas
Even though Malkin would be the obvious second choice for the Pens, I do believe a good second option would be Guentzal.
Nah
Letang
For leafs I’d say Morgan Reilly
I’d say Josh Bailey for NYI, he’s a veteran presence for the team, but Barzal is a great young player who will likely score 30+ this season. Both would be good picks for the C
Just watched this video for the first time. Of the five teams that have since named new captains you were right on four of them. NJD, NYR and OTT still up in the air
I love how more than one of these are real now (Hischier and Bergeron)
I’m a bruins fan they should make it Patrnak
Matt 63 no Patrice has been the leader alongside chara and if they go somebody before him that would be extremely disrespectful

Dude could’ve been a number one center anywhere else but stayed in Pittsburgh playing behind Crosby. Mad respect for him definitely could’ve been a captain.

I feel like RNH would be better for the oilers. Draisaitl is my favourite player but nuge has been there for a while
I dont really feel like hes a "LEADER" like some others
I definitely agree with Zibanejad becoming captain they should definitely jump him up to C after that 5 goal game
Tkachuk is definitely the right choice. The guy drags his team into battle every night, he's very fiery, vocal and well-respected by his teammates.
I think Reilly is closer to being Captain than Matthews. He's the permanent A and Matthews just alternates with Marner. I do think they always planned for Matthews to be Captain though until JT was drafted.
Personally as an Islanders fan I would probably say Boychuck or Bailey for captain. I do see Barzal as an eventual captain but I would not rush him to that role.
Yes a lot of new players came into the nhl in the last couple of years
Pretty good predictions haha few of those happened this season!
The Caps would have to be TJ Oshie. Why? Because when they resigned him a few years back they did it because (besides the obvious being a great player & a guy that can get you a handful of extra points via the shoot-out throughout the season) he is a fantastic locker room guy.
Word is he really works his teammates up, always has a good word for everyone. A never say die winner's work ethic and has an infectious PMA that spreads throughout the team. Exactly the type of leader many teams could use or want to pin the "C" on.

I was kinda surprised that the Wild named Spurgeon as their new captain.
I would’ve picked Seguin or Klingberg for the Stars personally
I would say J.T Miller for Vancouver
Nuge would easily be captain if McDavid wasn’t there
Vegas- William Karlsson
For the preds I would have chosen Ryan Johansen
100% agree with 20% of these picks
100%
For the Blackhawks I would put Patrick Kane because he's probably like the best player on the Blackhawks
I think the one wearing the C for the Canadiens should be Matthew Peca! Go Tampa Bay Lighting! I think the one wearing the C for the Lightning should be Tyler Johnson
