In more "what the fuck are they thinking in Edmonton" news; Andrew Ference was named the new team captain. Not saying he won't make a good captain being a veteran and all. But camaaan, give the C to one of the kids! Not to mention Ference just joined the team to boot, he's barely been in that lockerroom =\
Also something I didn't know, Joe Colborne is Calgary born! Which makes the trade kinda cool, bringing in another kid to play with his hometown team! (The other being TJ Galliardi)
Caps trade Perreault to Anaheim for John Mitchell and a 4th round pick.
MP85 to the Ducks
Should've just given the fucking C to Smytty. Sure it's 15 years too late for it to matter, but just as an interim thing like "This is yours for a year, then it's Hallsy's. Better late than never, enjoy your Captaincy role." as opposed to Ference getting it because "He won a cup, he has winning experience. blah blah blah."
The team might come close to 500 this year... maybe - neither captain choices would make or break anything, so may as well give the fans their chance to see Smyth with a C on his chest, since we were calling for it long before it went to Sloth Horcoff.
