The Captain is supposed to set the tone of the game, he's supposed to lead the charge.
Aside from being the guy that gets to chat with the refs, he's the guy that brings the locker room together when things are not going their way.
You hear the quote from opposing players like Rupp. Pretty much indicating he signed here because of Callahan.
Don't get me wrong, Richards would be a damn fine captain, just not sure THIS Rangers team is the team he should be captaining.
The Rangers are Callahans team.
He's not the best player, but I never bought into that BS that your best player should wear the C.
Callahan does everything you want a hockey player to do, and he does it with class. His approach to games is contaigous and in that sense he makes his teammates better.
To me, this is a no brainer.
Callahan gets the C
