[Bové] FWIW I fully expect Rasmus Dahlin to be the next captain of the Buffalo Sabres. Obviously not this year, but whenever Okposo retires.

I have believed this the entire time too. Especially after his new contract, this will firmly be Dahlin’s team (there’s a reason he had the A this year).
I’m sure a lot of fans will want or expect Tuch but he seems more buddy buddy with everyone which is more suited to an assistant role.
I have to think it’s gonna be Tuch and Girgs with the A, then Cozens will slide over to the A if Girgs ever leaves
Called it.
Tuch, Cozens and Samuelson with A’s and we’re a championship team
Eventually it will be
C Dahlin
A Tuch, A Cozens
He totally deserves it. He’s worked hard, suffered under Kruger, and holds himself accountable. He’s skilled, good with his teammates (especially Power), and an all around amazing asset to this team.
But Tuch grew up a Sabres fan! /s
I love Dahlin but right now I just want to see that A on Tuch.
after Eichel my opinion of “best player captain” has been pretty negative but I think if and when it comes for Dahlin, it’s because he’s actually a leader for this team in the locker room.
