Yes, you have Joe Sakic type captains too. And yes, a letter doesn't make a leader. But I prefer if someone in this vein wears the C. I've always felt Sam Bennett is captain material for this reason.

So in other words Monahan seeing he's a warrior that's continued to play in more than a few seasons with a broken body by the end of the season. Bennett maybe if he can continue to progress but I feel Monahan has been groomed from day one to be a future captain of this organization.
