avelanch Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Were you typing that on your phone? But Pelletier and Biega have captaincy experience, as well as Price, who I already mentioned. I could see them being a leadership group. I'd really need to know more about each player though for how well they'd fit and I'm sure they'll look at how the team gets along to see who should have the 'C'.

22sedins33 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I'd be shocked if it was anyone but Pelletier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elvis15 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 as it stands now, this. pelletier most likely wearing the C. i'd like to see archie wear one of the As. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wshdrvvn Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 No idea why they'd pick Archibald; he hasn't worn a C, although he did wear an A for part of his time in junior. As I mentioned, Price and Biega have both been captains (Colgate and Harvard respectively) so they'd be more likely to get involved as alternates than Archibald.

elvis15 Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 I like how archibald plays, its good to have hard working tough players in your leadership group. it's something i thought was missing from the wolves, the leaders on that team weren't getting the guys fired up. Price and Biega would be good choices to be sure, I just like the idea of having some toughness within the leadership group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theo5789 Posted July 27, 2013 Share Posted July 27, 2013 I would think a captain would generally be a player that is likely not going to be called up to the Canucks because you want a consistent captain on the team. It is more suited for a player with lots of AHL experience and preferably to a good mentor. With that said, I could see a player like Colin Stuart being the captain with Pelletier being an assistant with the other assistant being given to a younger leader on the team.

Chronic.Canuck Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I think Pelletier or Stuart will wear the C. If Corrado spends the year in the AHL he'll most likely have an A. Also could see a guy like Price with one (if he signs). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mangoes Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 I think Yann Sauve should be captain but if he gets called up I think that Colin Stuart who most likely won't see action in the NHL will be captain of the Comets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canucklax Posted July 31, 2013 Share Posted July 31, 2013 Why do people think that young guys would get a letter? Leadership positions are filled by experienced players, not guys in their first or second year in the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nuckist Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Hamill has been an alternate captain at times in the AHL and junior, but I doubt he gets the 'C' in Utica. They'll likely be very focussed on him regaining some of the projected form from when he was drafted rather than burden him with leadership responsibility, especially if there is any truth to his extra curricular activities.

bigpush Posted August 10, 2013 Share Posted August 10, 2013 Stuart, had the C in Rochester also has seen a bit of NHL so knows the ups and downs of the AHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
