Interesting discussion that has been making the rounds; if Jamie were to retire this offseason, who do you think would be the captain next year, or, who do you want to see as the captain moving forward?

This is a weird thing to latch on to now. Was Otter perfect in the playoffs? No, but he was down the list as far as reasons they lost the series. When looking to assign blame the focus should be on getting virtually nothing done at 5-on-5 (for various reasons). Rotating goalies wouldn't have changed any of that.

Gotta be Mikko or Miro in my opinion. I could see Wyatt also, but is he ready to grab this thing by the neck and pull it forward?

What about Duchene?

No on Wyatt being ready, and I think he's a ways off from being ready. I also would lean Mikko or Miro. Miro is an interesting situation, because part of me thinks if you give him the C he'll step up even more and be even better. I mean he already plays more than anyone and is damn near irreplaceable, plus he's a lot more fiery I think than we might know or he lets on. But the other part of me doesn't know what he's like behind closed doors in leadership meetings and so on. I think I would go Miro and give Mikko an A. I don't think Mikko needs the C. He's already the guy on this team imo.

Yeah, I got that. Unless my son comes to town and really wants to go, I'm gonna pass. It made sense to go to an outdoor game at the Cotton Bowl (which was awesome!), but an indoor game at JerryWorld doesn't have near the same appeal to me.

Thirded. I have no desire to shell out over a grand for 5-6 seats in the rafters. Add to that parking, food and beer, souvenirs, etc and the whole sterile Jerryworld experience and it's just not worth it. I can save so much money and aggravation by simply watching from my couch.

And the WC was my favorite Stars experience ever.

Guy!

Emil Hemming with a slick, slick goal tonight for the Barrie Colts in the OHL playoffs. He's had a really good year in the OHL by all accounts.
