I went with Iginla as he seemed to embody everything at least for a few seasons.

But I was really considering Conroy. IMO, he is the one that changed the loser expectations and took the team out of the dark ages. I wonder if Iginla would have become the captain he did without Conroy coming in and changing the attitude and expectations of the club back in the early 2000s.

Lanny is the nostalgic pick, but there were so many great leaders on the team in that era.
