Ghostsof1915 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Is this because he has good conditioning? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duodenum Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 It was going to be him or Trochek. He's their best player, by far, plays a hard-nose two way game. Probably win a Selke at some point. What a steal of a contract he's on as well. Good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Kerr Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Why would they do that if they have Bobby luuu on there team........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 After seeing this fight I couldn't take Derek Mackenzie seriously haha, let alone being the captain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McBackup Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Easily one of the most underrated players in the league. As much as people (justifiably) complain about Eastern bias causing Vancouver players to not get the respect they deserve, the same goes for Florida. Barkov is an absolute beast but because he plays for the panthers he gets largely swept under the rug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanGnome Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 But, but he's only 23! How could he ever handle being the captain of an NHL hockey team? Bo better get named the C this year, I'm tired of this management team dancing around subjects when they shouldn't and not doing so when they should. Ticky tack, mickey mouse management. Name Bo, and get it over with. He's clearly the leader of this team, perhaps they're waiting to do a ceremony between he and hank? I dunno, they have a thing for showmanship.

Where's Wellwood Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Any reason why him and not Ekblad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeremyCuddles Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 One of my fav players in the league right now. He is super underrated and I think should have been one of the finalists for Selke last season. Definitely a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get a chance to watch some Panthers games you'll see just how good Barkov is and how important he is to the team. Ekblad is pretty good but I'd definitely say that's Barkov's team.

I vacation down there and see a handful of games each year and Barkov is a great player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose they want someone young to lead them. As another poster noted plays a solid 2 way game. I see a bit of Johny Toews in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
