I think its obviously Bedard. Its just a matter of when they do it at this point. Probably next season.

imagine opening night, Bedard presented as captain. Frondell, Kantserov and McKenna debuting as rookies. erect.

No one this season. 98 gets it next year

Very clear the vets are out it’s time for the kids to come up and play next season

Connor with the C. Frank with the A.

Very likely Bedard gets the C when his contract extension is announced. Probably won’t be until the reg season ends. Doesn’t make sense to do it in the midst of tanking the rest of the season

I think Connor getting the C is going to be pretty much consensus. My guesses for the As are Vlasic and Donny. I think people sleep on Donato as a leader, he’s been pretty influential with Bedard.

Not sure if they’ll immediately give Bedard the ‘C’, but he will get it next year if not now.

Like there’s a fuckin debate? If it’s not Bedard, what are we doing?

The Zamboni driver?

This is how it’s gonna go:
Bedard gets the ‘A’ for the rest of the year
Bedard signs a long lucrative extension in the off season
Bedard is named the new Captain of the Blackhawks prior to the start of next year

It was always going to be Connor.

I know this is going to be controversial but i don’t think Bedard should get the C. He should absolutely get an A. I like Vlasic or Donato a lot for that one.

Future considerations?!?

I know how you all and myself feel about Frank Servalli, in one of the interviews spot he did today on CHSN, where the news first broke of Bedards extension he said they Bedard “will be captain next year.”
Personally, after hearing Toews talk about becoming captain at his young age and the lasting effect it’s had on his mental health. I wonder if giving Bedard the C might be a mistake. I’ve never been in the room with him but the vibes I get always seem to be quiet and not pushy twords his other team mates, which you do need in a locker room trying to win championships. You need to push all of your teammates to be best players they can be and snap them back into reality when they need it.
On the other hand, Bedard and Bertuzzi go out every night and play a full 60 minute game even when losing. The effort is there every night and that’s incredibly inspiring if that’s your leadership. All the players under MJ used to say ‘he never asked me to do things he wouldn’t do himself’ I believe Bedard and Bertuzzi are the same way.
Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

Hmm lemme think…
We all know it’s bedard. Gotta keep up the whole team play look so they wait till next year but everybody knows it already.

Bedard makes sense just because of how important he is, but he also seems like the type of guy that put all of his talent points into one skill tree

I assume they won’t give it to anyone for the rest of the year. Interested in seeing who’s gonna get it eventually
Conner will eventually.
Vlasic gets an A. C to bedard next year.
Bedard next season. Vlasic and Bertuzzi for alternates next year too.
bedard is getting the C along with a big extension this offseason.
this is a theory but something to follow: https://x.com/deepdishsports7/status/2029963989598212377?s=46
