Most vanilla captain in franchise history and has to be one of the least exciting captains in the league.

Yup, didn’t like it when it was announced. Hate it even more now. Pretty embarrassing state of affairs here right now. Who would’ve thought? Warm fuzzy feelings don’t win you hockey games. Never have, never will.
