He's struggled with confidence in the past and I think he'd be a proud recipient and good captain given his tenure here.

The second most deserving guy to me is Mangiapane.

Just off a MVP at the world's and him being a great ambassador for this team and recently that t shirt he was promoting it seems like a natural fit to me.

I think his team mates and coaches really appreciate him and it would be a popular choice.

Who doesn't like this guy?

There is zero chance it would be Mangiapane. Likely going to be Backlund, Monahan, or Lucic. As much as I think Tkachuk would make a good long term captain, he needs to mature a bit and be under contact for more than 1 year.
