Sure, but Landeskog seems VERY rushed into that captain role IMO.
Look at the list of NHL captains and you see players who have:
-Lead the team in scoring
-Big voice in the NHL (well known)
-Respected by other teams/players
^Sure he leads his team in points but does he fit the rest?
When Crosby was named the Penguins captain that was a different situation. Crosby put up a crazy amount of points for a rookie and was noted as "generational talent".
And sure Girgensons is 21 but he only has 30 points (2 more than Bouma) and was INSANLEY over-hyped for the All-Star games.
