Why wait? If the lockerroom has already decided on who the captain should be then there is really no point in putting it off. Its not like the opinion of a bunch of fans on a message board actually matters to how the team is run.
And really, Giordano doesn't have to be the best player on the team to wear the C. The concepts of "best player on the team" and "team captain" are mutually exclusive.
