Absolutely, Zibanejad is pretty much a 3C at 5v5 these days.

[@jeffreyo8496]

He is their best all around player plus HE SHOWS UP IN THE PLAYOFFS

[@chronokenny8499]

yes he is

[@louispeddiltton47]

eh. they both did well all year. the pressure is on Mika to be the greatest ever for some reason. they forget that he is pretty darn good just being Mika. But maybe it will get him to drive a bit harder, in preparation for offseason too. I think he would probably agree that improvement is always a good thing - and that is why Mika is a true warrior. LGR!
As far as captain, Panarin wants to be captain a few years ago. I don't remember reading about him changing that. However, as much as i love Panarin I think Kreider is the best captain. But i am not in the locker room like the guys are. I assume they vote for their own captain, but what do I know?

[@26twelve]

Panarin specifically did NOT want to be captain. He was vocal about this and it brought a negative backlash on him from fans for a while. Kreider is an all time NYR and a perfect Assistant who also is better off without the added responsibilities that the C carries. This man, Vinny Trocini would get my vote to wear the C when Trouba is imminently moved.

Mika was awful last season .
