I'm a fan of this. Give him the C next year, and give Bedard an A. Then give Bedard the C the year after, and Foligno the A for what is likely his last year of his career.
Anyone griefing about the caphit can go pound sand. It does not matter one bit. His leadership and veteran presence to steward the new generation of Hawks will be invaluable.
Love it. Kyle had a couple of misses in the offseason with acquisitions but this one was definitely not one of them. Foligno is grade A captain personified.
Someone with the right character, experience and leadership qualities....makes sense. Now, let's extend Blackwell for another year, sign Dickinson for 3 years, Vlasic for 5 years and our goalie who has been REALLY SOLID this year.
they should hold the captaincy until bedard is ready imo...going toews to bedard is what makes the most sense, roll with all A's going forward and start to mix in Bedard next year
