I think the leafs are doing the right thing holding off from naming a captain right now. I've said it before there is no one there who can fill that role currently. Maybe Schenn down the line, but not yet. Kaberle is the closest thing to a leader on the team, but he's probably just a on-ice, lead by example type of guy, can't see him rallying the trooops and carrying the team on his shoulders.
I think they have to either import a captain or wait for someone to grow into the role, it could take a couple years before you see a legit captain in Toronto. |

No one has really earned the honour yet, maybe Kaberle.
The Leafs number 1 priority right now is to get one or two solid scorers. Rumours have it Burke want's the Sedins. He gave them their shot so they have been rumoured to be leaving the Canucks is they don't go far this year. If we get a legit scorer, whoever they are, they will probably be the next captain.

| Schenn may be young, but had any of you watched all 82 regular season games this year, you would know that he is already a leader on this team. I have a feeling he's going to get the "C", and when he does, I'll applaud Leaf management. They'd be showing who our franchise is going to be built around, and who our go-to guy will be (and already is). He'll captain the Leafs for years to come, and eventually lead us to a Cup. |

first of all, who cares about the next leaf captain.
secondly, Schenn WILL one day wear the "C" - but not for the leafs, he's too smart to stay there
and finally, "lead us to the Cup"... you MUST be talking about some cup at amateur GOLF tournament hosted by burke!!!

Well... these people apparently lol.
I vote wait it out till a true leader comes along. Shenn is too young. I'm not a huge fan of kids being captain, though he has shown tremendous leadership qualities already. |

If you were trying to be funny, you failed. Stay out of a thread you know nothing about. |

| There seems to be no problem with Hanley's choice, he is young and an awesome hockey player and as for being young does anyone remember a guy named Yzerman or Toews all young and are awesome leaders. Get you heads out of the clouds, let him be the leader and grow with the team and maybe one day the Leafs may make the playoffs!! |

dude, you really don't have much to contribute to this forum except for "who cares!?" when it comes to the leafs...
If you haven't noticed the leafs have some of the most die hard fans, not to mention that there are a TON of them. Alot of people care.
Who cares if YOU don't care!
There is no "I" in team, but there is an "M" and an "E". |

Apparently Kubina's won over Wilson and Burke with his off ice leadership, more so with Schenn and the other young players. Not to mention, pretty much all of his goals were rather to tie the game, or win the game. He really steps it up in the clutch. He's the front runner for the "C", 2nd to him is Blake because of his on and off ice ethic last year, not to mention, the cancer situation really inspired some players.

Your assuming that Kubina, Blake and Kaberle are part of Burkes long term goals here. Cant see Blake the face of the TO Leafs at media time. I think they import a player to fill it until Schenn proves he's there to stay. After all he's no Sydney Crosby/Steve Yserman. |

| now if Burke can bring both H and D sedin then Henrick should be captian he desivers it and d should be Alternate. Now if they dont come over to TO then Kaberla should be captian he has been there for a long time and should be the captian. but we will see who will be captain it could be someone burke brings in on July 1st. |
