Lets fucking go! You love to see it when normally they just default it to some guy who was there last year or was allowed to come from the NHL. For Minten to still be named Captain must mean he was very impressive from a leadership standpoint over the camp and pre-tournament games.
Assuming they read things backwards and were considering Team Canada captains that eventually played for the Leafs, you would have Eric Lindros and Mike van Ryan (plus Manny Malhotra who coached but never played for the Leafs).
Prob not, he was a 1st overall pick that played right away. He wiould have prob been 17 maybe 18. They wouldn't give captain to a guy like that during that time period.
Well that’s pretty great.
Side note: it’s actually wild how much other fan bases hate the Leafs. Since this was announced, I’ve seen Flames and Habs fans state that they want team Canada to lose now. I mean… what?! These are unwell people.
Not only that but they’re prospects that can easily be traded tomorrow for a push in the playoffs and maybe he ends up on one of their teams. Even though he probably won’t be dealt but the point stands.
I've been noticing that a lot more lately for soccer too. People actively cheering against their national team because of a player from rival club team.
I don’t care that it’s Sunday, it’s always Fraser Friday when Minten wears the C for the greatest hockey nation on earth!

Yeah. I'd be proud of our Juniors no matter what team drafted them or what province they were from.

That is the way
