What makes Backes or Parise a better captain than Callahan?
- _Zippy_
Personal preference ...Backes in my mind is a much better player and leader then Callahan...Parise is a toss up really. I really do like Callahan though...reminds me a lot of Mike Richards. |

Fall asleep means your implying the Devils are playing defensive hockey, i.e the trap, which they don't.

I implied nothing about their system bud. |

Toews, Lidstrom, Crosby, Chara, Iggy, Pronger, Parise, Backes are definitely ahead of Callahan when it comes to being a captain

Kovalchuk was a better captain than all of them. The soft commies make for good captains don't they?  |

Better question...
Who is the best captain of all-time?
Will I sound like a homer if I say Stevens? |

Yes. Great captain. Worth consideration but not best all time. |

They make me want to fall asleep when I watch the Devils
- Richieattack18
I agree but I had to look up the stats.
The Devils give up the fewest shots per game and take the 4th fewest shots per game. According to NHL web site. |

Crosby isn't physical enough to be the best Captain. He's just very skilled. |

Toews, Lidstrom, Chara, Weber, Ovechkin, Alfredsson, Thornton, and Staal are all better captains than Callahan. |

Really strange question. Not sure this is fair to Callahan.
- spatso
agree. Why does it have to be the best. Why can't we say that he is an outstanding leader the future is bright for the Rangers. |

messier
- rangerdanger94
Nah. One cup does not make him best ever. What did he do in Edmonton after Gretz left????
Potvin before Messier by a mile. But I'm not even throwing him in as best ever.
Ranger fans. Always thinking too ambitiously and in a bubble. You probably asked for the day off after Game 7 of Stanley Cup already for the parade. |

Horcoff and Phaneuf are up there.

Staal, I'm not so sure. At 8.25 million/year I think he is more detrimental to the team than anything. |

where did this even come from?
what would make Callahan the best captain? why is this even a conversation?
he's just another captain. Idk what makes a 'best' captain and what makes a 'bad' captain.. but i don't think teams would have captains that sucked at their responsibility. I'd assume they're probably all good. Callahan, Brown, Parise, Lidstrom,.. all great captains. yay. |
