Give the C to the guy who shows up for the big plays and drags his team into the game. That's what counts. And that's why you are getting Tkachuck suggestions. He has a bit of work to do, no doubt, but he's got the potential to be that kind of leader.

Fine I’m back in. I cannot think of a single hockey game of importance that Tkachuk dragged his team through. Not a leader.
