All of them (even Yakupov) would probably work out just fine if they were on a team with already strong leadership and surrounded by strong minds...but on the Oilers they are just surrounded by people exactly like themselves. All those top picks and not one Toews, Landeskog, or Brown, among them to lead the pack. Perhaps Hall at least tries to play this role, but the guy just doesn't come across as being smart enough to do so effectively.

That would explain giving the "C" to a player who has never stepped on the ice for the team.
