Here's an idea about selecting the next captain for the Canucks.

IF Schenn is still with the team for next season, make Luke Schenn the captain.

He's a vocal player, a veteran d-man who plays pretty well defensively compared to OEL and Meyers, and a former Stanley Cup champion.

Schenn has the respect of most, if not all of the players in the locker room, in my opinion.

Take the "A" off OEL's jersey, because Eckman Larsson's level of play this season and pretty much his entire career with the Canucks has not helped earn the assistant captain role.

Give the assistant captain role to Hughes.

Schenn is a good mentor. He would help Quinn a lot in terms of learning what it takes to be a team leader, a captain of the team.

When Schenn is no longer playing for the Canucks, then Schenn hands over the captaincy to Hughes.

Taking the assistant captain role from OEL might be a good way to piss him off so that OEL waives his NTC and demands a trade from the team ahahah. A good way for the team to dump even more salary hahahaa.
