Eh who cares. He really wasn't SUPPOSED to be our captain, it's not like we placed someone decent on waivers... At least we can have a new, functioning captain.

what do you mean he wasn't supposed to be our captain? :think: the players voted for him. Apparently he was a good voice in the locker room. Unfortunately, skill wise he just isn't where we need him to be and he can't really help us out on the ice anymore. I think this is a good move to make, but I too am wondering where the C will go. I hope they don't do rotating captains again.




he was also voted in as captain pretty much as soon as he came to buffalo. and at the time a lot of our players really were still younger, and just lost the only leaders they had known. i'd be willing to bet if they voted for a captain last week, rivet would have been one of the last guys they even considered.


my guess is the C goes to someone you wouldnt entirely guess like Leopold.

Great for the organization, but very tough for him.

No surprise. I hope he can be picked up and play somewhere before he has to retire in the summer.

My guess is Neids. He's sucked, he's leaving come Spring, but he's a grey beard. Default C?

Myers.

This is really interesting. So begins the new era of Sabres hockey.

Wow they couldn't even get a 6th rounder for him. I guess what his pay is that was the killer. Nobody wants to pay him that kind of money.

I actually agree on Leo. He has been solid for us all year long, and has been productive. I'm not sure how he is in the locker room though but as far as on ice play, I like the idea of Leo wearing a C

he IS the reason for all the MJ after wins. being able to control the radio has got to count for something in the locker room too, right? haha

It's not a out who has been solid or played well all year. People do understand that that is not what players do to be captain. It's Bout on ice and off ice leadership. Points and goals does not translate to a captain

He's a stand up guy, I wish the best for him in all of his future endeavors. And with all due respect, I am relieved to never again see him play in a Sabres jersey.

yea, that's why I mentioned that I didn't know what goes on in the locker room. So all we can really go off of is what we see on the ice, and off ice leadership is really just speculation from our standpoint.
