Giordano was the obvious choice for years, but as he's having a rough year, it's convenient to brush that notion aside. I still think he'd make a terrific Captain.
That said, based on performance this year, I'm going to go with Stajan. Last few years I would have never said it, but after this season, he has absolutely transformed himself in my eyes.
14 points in 25 games, leads the team in +/-, takes the vast majority of faceoffs for his team, averaging just under 18 minutes per game. But more importantly, he's made all the guys he's played with this year, better for it.
