Canucks captaincy: Who’s ready to ‘C’s the day? Give it some time

Why not keep current alternates in place this season, or even 2023\u002D24, to allow captaincy contenders like Elias Pettersson to listen, learn?

revealed that 54.02 per cent of respondents favoured Elias Pettersson, 18.63 per cent liked Luke Schenn — if the pending unrestricted free agent remains — and 13.8 per cent voted for J.T. Miller. The ‘other’ category, which likely included Quinn Hughes, was at 13.55 per cent.

It’s customary to present the ‘C’ to one of your best players because it’s a natural way to award leading by example. It’s what Henrik Sedin, Markus Naslund and Trevor Linden did to critical acclaim, but all three first served as alternates before facing a sea of microphones as captain. “Playing in a Canadian market is definitely a challenge, but a lot of younger players have grown into it,” said Canucks general manager Patrik Allvin. “Every leader is different. Hopefully, performing on the ice will lead this group more than talking off the ice.

Tocchet likes Schenn, who is cut for the same competitive cloth, and if he returns it would help Pettersson and Hughes understand to a greater degree the amount of preparation and professionalism that goes into becoming a greater presence on the ice and in the room.
