Hamhuis just got here. We all laughed when Phaneuf was named captain of the Leafs.
Kesler is my choice. I think Hank would do a good job as well but Kesler has the potential to be a great captain. Seriously, in the years since Linden's decline, has anyone but Kesler shown the potential to be the sort of guy that's "Hop on my back, boys! We're winning this game if it kills me!" That's why I thought it was okay for Louie to be captain...because that's the sort of guy he is as well. He'll go beast mode and steal us games but apparently the pressure is too much for him.
That's the sort of game he showed us during the Olympics. I don't know if he was hurt or what during the playoffs but that's the sort of game I expect from him from now on.
