On Tuesday morning, 20-year-old Sean Monahan was named one of the Calgary Flames alternate captains.

Captain Mark Giordano presented Monahan with his new jersey before practice.

He and Dennis Wideman will alternate wearing the 'A' during home and away games this season. Kris Russell will continue donning an 'A' in all games in the 2015-16 campaign.

I'm guessing Russell keeps his. Is it 2 As or 3? Thought Hudler would have one.

Pretty widely talked about for his leadership skills, especially during the playoffs.

Well earned!

Remind me - how do the Flames choose their captains? Does Hartley consult the players? I don't think there's a vote because I remember how Wideman got his A.

Last year, wasn't it Gio, and Hudler/Russell with the 'A's? If I am wrong , please correct, me, but why take it from Hudler?

I think Hudler and Wideman split it when Glencross left town and then when Gio went down we just had 3 As. Stajan had it sometimes too.

Who fricken knows haha.

I think Huds would gladly give up his A for Mony. I wouldn't be shocked if it was his idea

Hudler may be leaving this summer, and he took the A from Glencross IIRC.

When Gio went down the other A went to Wideman.

I like the choice, clearly he's a big leader in the room and will eventually become the captain.

Not disagreeing that Mony is a great choice, just couldn't remember the way last year went, so thank you all for the responses. If Hudler did give it to Mony purposely, then yes it does sound like something he would do.
