Thanks for explaining! So does that mean an alternate would have a jersey with an A and a jersey without an A when they’re rotating? I can’t believe I never even noticed lol but seriously I wish leafs fans would pick a damn opinion and own up to it like the way they hated jt for his contract and wanted him traded up until he passed the C to auston and suddenly he’s nhl joe Biden and it would be sacrilege to make him share an A like it is nawt that serious it can nawt possibly be that serious
yes!! behind the scenes, everyone already has multiple home and away jerseys already, so the leadership group with rotating a's just has them with and without depending on the game! i'm fairly certain mitch and auston just switched off every other game most of the time, but i feel like i've heard about some teams doing away vs home alts etc etc. all of that seems up to the team, you just submit your roster and can only have 3 ppl with a letter per game. most teams just stick to 1 c and 2 a's, but when one of them is out, sometimes someone will be made an a temporarily too.
and tell me about it, lol!!!!!! people just act like it's the biggest deal in the world and i'm truly like.... jt just willingly stepped aside and handed over the whole ass captaincy, which isn't uber common....... you're gonna tell me he draws the line at sometimes not having an a on his jersey? did the whole team just forget he's been their captain for yrs and has the leadership qualities that he does bc he's not wearing it? god forbid. i've seen it about mo a lot too and i'm just like. i get ppl are sentimental abt his tenure with the leafs but be VERY real if you think morgan rielly is gonna throw a hissy fit abt some shit stitched on his jersey every other game. it's not like you get paid more one way or another. it's not like there's a real impact beyond you just not being at the forefront in terms of talking to officials.
#easks#its jsut so fuckjdnksfl STUPIDDDD#i think the leadership responsibilities behind the scenes require more time put in in terms of meetings and#speaking w upper management. and showing up..#but just . anyone in that group does that all the time like thats the point lol. its not a game to game basis#its abt who has the initiative in the room and all of tehse guys have had these positions for yrs lol#spending extra hours giving feedback to the coaches and coming up w game plans to get the rest of the team on board#even off the ice shit like#mitch is the one planning team parties. mo and auston buying youngens suits. jt hosting newbies at his house#auston having everyrone over when they were in az.#mitch constantly checking up on everyone and keeping open communication. jt taking the rookies out golfing#like thats all stuff thats like. documented. lKFJDS AND LEADERSHIP SHIT BRO
