Introducing The 3 Assistant Captains

When a captain is selected this now means as it stand that either one of Cammalleri or Gomez will not have a letter.I wonder if this will create some tension?

I honestly don't know who the captain should be but Gomez and Cammalleri deserve atleast an A.I can't think of one guy on this team who clearly stands out as the captain.Hopefully it will be more clear within a few months.

It might be hard for Gill to lead from the bench or the pressbox.

I'm pretty sure with the money he's being paid (never mind the fact that he was great in the SC Finals), Gill won't be in the press box very often. Like him or not, I'm pretty sure Gill will be an everyday player. He must shown the leadership qualities that the guys in charge are looking for, so I think we should all cut him some slack.

We dont know for sure that these are the only guys who will wear a letter for the whole season. It could just as well be only a temporary measure until a final decision is made later in the year. Its also possible that Gomez and Cammy hinted that they not to be considered,,,,, choosing rather to lead in a different manner and concentrate on their game. Maybe they dont like the aspect of having to deal with the media day in and day out.

Basically what your going to see sometime down the road is Gionta being named captain of this franchise, hes going to be here a minimum of 5 years and he leads by example on the ice better than anyone thats the way i see it.

Markov and Gill will carry As for the next few years then when Gill's contract is up i imagine scotty will then assume his A

I think Cammi and Gomez were not given the A because they are ones actually being considered for Captaincy. And I don;t think Gomez wants any more pressure on him anyway. he knows fully well that he might get booed as early as in November if he doesn't produced...why add the pressure of an A or a C on top of that? ;)
