Thrashers Name 3 Alternate Captains

Vivlamore:

...Nik Antropov, Andrew Ladd and Johnny Oduya were named alternate captains by head coach Craig Ramsay Wednesday.

Can't disagree with the choices, as all three seem like quality humans and players who take responsibility for the game. None are Leader leaders, which is fine, because good leaders are a rarity in any field of human life. What's interesting about this, and what makes one stop and think, is that none of these guys has been a Thrasher for more than a year. Two of them much less than a year.

The fact that the Thrashers have had no enduring captain at any point in their history tells you all you need to know about how this team has been assembled and run over the years.
