Milan Lucic named CAPTAIN of TEAM CANADA!!!

[GF71]

I just finished talking with Milan...10:40PM. Sutter told him about 30 minutes ago that he is going to be the Captain of Team Canada for the Summit Series. I thought you all would like to know ASAP. Media release to come out tomorrow. :groovy: applause

surprising to say the least one of the few guys who hasn't already been a captain and lacks international experience. Sutter must've seen something he liked a lot.

Big congrats to Milan as he really must have earned this honour. He was all smiles in the interviews after the news.
