What do you define a captain as? Is it the guy who makes all the speeches? The guy who yells at other guys in the locker room? To me it’s the guy who gets his team playing hard, well, and personifies what the fans look for in a player that represents their respective city. For a while there it was Jaromir Jagr. We wanted to see some skill, we wanted to see some goal scoring, etc. Right now, that isn’t what we want to see. What is it we want?
Heart and Attitude.
AKA Sean Avery. You saw a team with a ton of heart, and a ton of attitude out there. And even though I personally feel they are playing the Sens in possibly the worst time you could play them (They are pretty hot, we are ice cold) you can see just what the attitude does to the team.
We may not win this game, but at least we will play the way we all want them to play.
Give Sean the C.
