I don't think he's the worst captain ever. Or in Flames history.

I also don't think you need to win a Cup to be considered a great captain.

You know who I think was a great captain but few think of him? Brian Skrudland. He did win a Cup with the Canadiens, but not as captain, obviously. And those 80's Canadiens was likely a breeding ground for leaders.
Define first the criteria for what makes a great captain, and how we as fans would recognize it as distinct from other aspects which make teams successful.
