I don't see any other player on the team whose game would take off to another level after being named captain. A case could be made for Huberdeau, he's good with the media, good with the young players, and could be the MVP of this team offensively. However that would put even more pressure on him to produce, pressure he hasn't handled well so far.

Kadri didn't even occur to me until reading this, there is merit here. I don't think the pride and responsibility that comes with the C would be lost on him,
(as strange as that may sound after seeing his GAF level in the second half of last season) Kadri could really elevate if made leader of the pack.
