At the Prospect Camp he couldn't lift 125 lbs ........"ONCE" as noted on TSN ! There are kids playing for Riverview and Academy that can do that and most likely a dozen or so reps ! I'm not shitting on him and there were people last year when he was still with the Coyotes during Pre-Season Games that thought he may just stick based on "size and potential" . Let the kid play here this year and when / if Phoenix signs him , I wish him nothing but the best . I will remember him as a very nice Draft Steal who was a steady contributor . However because I made mention of last year .........you say I'm shitting on him ? Typical Johnny Bower ! Your comparing high school players with Major Junior....... "Not Talent Wise".............."Strength Wise" as in only Brodeur's Case" ......not being able to lift 125 lbs for the NHL Scouts ! Read the whole post Looney Fella !

I still think MacDougall will be your captain this year I don't know how I'd feel about that. I was really upset when MacDougall came here. I thought the trade was garbage initially, but, he meshed with the team very well, however, I just can't picture it.

I can see MacDougall being captain . His teammates love him , he sticks up for them . He should only improve on what he did last year upon arrival . I would think its between him and Nick MacNeil for the Captaincy

I agree with Topgun. Either MacNeil or MacDougall will wear the C. I would be happy with either choice.

I think MacDougall is our captain as well. Smart player, fearless, and well received. His offense should only further improve this year as well.
MacNeil never struck me as a captain honestly. Not a knock on Nick or anything, it's just not his game I don't think. He'll bang pucks home in front and stride down the wing and probably net 30+ for us, but I don't think he's a captain nor do I think he ought to be either just because he's local.
I'd be inclined to go with:
C- MacDougall A- Meilleur A- Ward A- MacNeil
Brodeur, Stinzi, Ellis could all possibly wear a letter as well.
but whatever the team chooses, I'm sure they will be good choices as well. lots of leadership on this roster!

Sounds right to me. If MacDougall doesn't get the "C" he'll for sure get an A.

Read the whole post Looney Fella ! I meant comparing in general, and yes I did read the whole post. ( Look at the second last post on page two. )
