Oh I dont care if its him or anyone else like I said its symbolic we went almost two years without a captain.

You could add the 13-14 season without a C as well

Three straight meltdowns?

There was other players too involved its a team game not solely one person.

Dion/Lups/Pick

for

Shea

they could get more than that I would think - I think they would go younger and cheaper?

Those were great years too.

So, lets go with no caches then, they do nothing.
- sloppyseconds2

Perfect.

There is other people that can step up as well, you think in Chicago because toews is captain no one else is going to step up.
- Yeti1181

Our leadership from the captain, and as a group, is terrible. The team played like beat dogs.

Yeah we were winning so much better before he was captain

Oh we don't have great leadership in any facet of the maple leafs organization .

I agree. But Dion's role is to lead, and lead others into leadership roles. Doesn't happen with the Leafs.

I agree. Dion symbolizes and embodies all of that ineptness.

And that's why you usually don't win with American players leading your team....... cause you just need to chill out people. It's just a game. I still get paid millions of dollars and get an extended vacation.

Too many players on this team are very chilled out

Some fans are stupid. Give our best player a break he has a life other than to play for our team.

So Captain Dion is just as bad as captain nobody...Pretty sure thats a fail for him..

He is saying chill our because he got molested for tweeting about how he is enjoying time with his friends. Some people are ao rude.

Well no fans not in the dressing room but Results on the ice are the same...

I find it hilarious as well when people lose their minds when a player takes an interest in another hobby in life. Who the (frank) gives a poop. What are they supposed to do? Workout 12 hours a day and then go cry themselves to sleep because they missed the playoffs?

not in the spots they do

Rielly is showing leadership abilities already. And he leads with his play as well. I could see him being our captain in a few years

- Fruitcakenipple

Pretty sure we are better the second last that's got to be a start at least

- Nucker101

yes

- Yeti1181

Yup, pretty sad that the team spirit is the same with or without Dion, shows he's ineffective.

I don't know I'm not actually in the locker room'
- Yeti1181

He also has to lead on the ice
Big goal
Big hit
Big assist
Big block

Big anything - change momentum
Rally the troops
He's not that guy
Put the C on someone else
