@@mitchkeychain5815 u think u guys are making bedard Captain this year?, or give him a couple more years? i thought they were gonna do a crosby or mcdavid n make him captain right away
@@sleevelessace this year probably not. I’d say probably in 25-26 season when we get more and more young pieces to add around him. I do think he will be captain just in another couple seasons.
Captains should always be level-headed and outspoken as Hughes is He was the only one who had the balls to speak out for Pearson. He wants it and he deserves it. Petterson clearly doesn't want the Captaincy as he is not comfortable speaking for the team and rather do the talking on the ice. JT is a great soldier and will lead everyone to his standards on the ice.
such class mentioning 9/11 on a day thats all about him... great leader this season unlocked a new level of his game... making him captain was the best choice canucks made ina LONG time.. aswell as hireing tocc, also you think he would be really quiet on ice, some can lead like that, but i watched a micd up game and he was filling that role perfectly
I have been a Canucks fan since the first game played. Listening to Quinn I have a great sense of excitement for this year and am passionately waiting for a puck drop.
Hughes will be a leader in the mold of Naslund and Hank. All supremely talented, leading by example and carrying on the tradition of what it means to be a Vancouver Canuck. Great choice!
They never won though…I hope as an oilers fan you can’t take w team to a cup final and lose:.. just to think it’s good enough.. I think stud dman will have a better chance than Petey to take you to the ultimate goal.. the twins, naslund, and linden were all great.. but if Hughes wants to lead this team to the next step.. he’s gotta be better at than them.. and he might just do it,. Way better choice than little petey, or emotional Miller..
Vancouver is notorious for bad decision making. Virtanen.....Podkolzin.... Juolevi over Tkachuk..... and now this. The kid is not ready and not suitable for this role. J.T. Miller is the heart and soul veteran leader of the Canucks.
@@glennhankins6927lol you are dumb man. Hughes is the best choice as Captain. Who would you choose? Petey who might leave? Demko? 30 year old Miller? Or go captainless for another 5 years with no direction?
He is soo good to be a captain he is soo good on the ice and in the room I'm soo glad we have a d men like him and some how he went 7th I would of picked him 1st
Atta boi Captain Huggy! Lead this team to our first Stanley Cup, no matter what it takes! Take us there. Show that "for free" guy you're the better captain!
Is it just me or did that press conference feel like a funeral? No one smiling, they didn't give him a captain Jersey. They constantly make references that any of the other guys could be captain. Real down vibes. This should feel like a celebration and it clearly doesn't.
Well, there's not a lot to happy about in Vancouver rn atm. But I agree with your observations on tone and vibe, 100%. Mentioning 9/11 right off the bat set the tone that continued throughout.
Quinn is an excellent choice, but my number 1 pick for captain was Petey! Nonetheless, I wish him all the best as the 15th captain of the Canucks! I am very happy for Quinn Hughes.
I was there. 50th anniversary year. We had such a good feeling about that team and future, before covid and Benning derailed everything. Crazy how fast things can change.
I think the main reason they didn’t go with Pettersson is because with uncertainty of his contract they don’t want to make him captain and then have him leave next year
Miller should have got it straight the eff up, Putting so much pressure on these young bucks and let's face it, Miller is here for the next 8 seasons if not bought out, Let the vet lead the wave!
The Hockey media is always so flat. Their is no enthusiasm. It is a sad day as he mentioned but it's also a big day. Can't expect much on 23 year old I guess.
Quinn is an absolute stud
So hot right now.
I’m a hawks fan, but Hughes was a great Choice as Nucks Captain. Bros insane on the Blue Line
Thanks Mitch

A wonderful player on the ice, likely widely-respected in the locker room, and excellent with the media. Solid choice.
I agree
If clay agrees, we made the right decision 😎❤
Does he scream captain to you though? Really doesnt to me
best def since paul coffey..
Absolutely deserved. Congratulations Quinn Hughes!!!

Why didnt you say anything about Demko?
what hpapened with pearson?
@@DefineSeizure The team botched his hand surgery and lengthened his absence from the game massively
@@AllCanucks We aren't doing another goalie captain lol
shen i really hope demko is healthy@@ShenaniganSync
I like that he acknowledged other players. Seems humble and hardworking. Best of luck. Also, thanks for acknowledging 911. Never forget.

Congrats Quinn !!!
so happy with this choice!!! congrats to quinn, i'm super excited for this upcoming season :)
Great choice and a great way of acknowledging other players too.
Cheers to Captain Quinn! He's a great choice, very happy for the guy!

That's literally just your opinion. Lol.
Its a letter on a jersey. Calm down.
@@glennhankins6927those were draft picks made by a different gm, how does that compare to a new gm making an entirely different kind of decision

Congrats hughes! Congrats canucks you have yet another great leader
Yes I'm stoked!!
I like this direction. Let's go boys! I waited a long smoky summer for this.
I love this. Just proves you don’t need to be the most vocal. You’re a leader if you lead by example
I mean he's more vocal than Petey.
@@Dwinnin6 I was thinking the same thing lol, like.. wut?
Finally some happy news for this team, hope they can have a stronger start this year and Hughes can be the driving force of the team
thank you quinn for addressing 9-11 and the impact it has had. lest we forget, you are truly an amazing person quinn and you deserve this great honor
Gratz Quinn.. new Era begins!
Kids a Stud!!! Congrats Quinn!!!!
Congratulations Huggy Bear 🎉 You've always been my favourite and my only straight crush lol.
You are gonna be an incredible captain.
HE LOOKS SOOOO HAPPY!!!!!
Either one of Petey or Hughes would have been a good call. Happy for Quinn and looking forward to the season.
He is soo good to be a captain he is soo good on the ice and in the room I'm soo glad we have a d men like him and some how he went 7th I would of picked him 1st
/The fact he mentioned 9/11 shows you everything. Guy is class.
Correct man for the job! Best choice imo. I’m super excited for the future.
The Captain that will take us to the cup. Book it
🙏
Atta boi Captain Huggy! Lead this team to our first Stanley Cup, no matter what it takes! Take us there. Show that "for free" guy you're the better captain!
The Canucks are very lucky to have Quinn Hughes!
We love you hughes, see you on the ice sooooon!! LETS GOO CANUCKS!@
Good for him!
STUD!!! Congrats huggy bear 🐻
So excited for this year!!!
Among other things for a team trying to focus on restructuring and strengthening its team defence; making Quinn the Captain is the right move
Hopefully they are planning on building the team around him, i can see him being a good team captain
Great choice good to see our other top players supporting this decision.
Buddy dropped a "we will never forget" LOL what a chad
It’s 911 he’s American and his grandfather was a NYC firefighter you’re pathetic.
Is it just me or did that press conference feel like a funeral?

He’ll be off to play with his brothers soon enough
This management group and coach are still ...... iffy as far as I'm concerned.
Best choice, well done!
Canucks are the bomb this year. Hope they don't explode. Great coach, goalie, great star players.
lets go quinn we love you bring honour back to vancouver!
Go Canucks Go!
YESSS!!!
He is the new CAPTAIN SERIOUS!
Happy for Hughes I love the guy just hope this doesn't hurt growth witch it won't the C will look good on his jersey and he'll wear it proudly
Love how Quinn is the captain, great decision, hopefully the Canucks can make the playoffs this year😂
YES!
Congrats!
Why didn't they hand him a sweater with a C on it just for fun :(
congratulations Quinn well Deserved
LET’S GO HUGGY BEAR
LETS GO KAI BEAR
Congratulations Quinn ,you deserve it
WOO-HOO fired up... this presser got me buzzin !!!
Quinn is an excellent choice, but my number 1 pick for captain was Petey! Nonetheless, I wish him all the best as the 15th captain of the Canucks! I am very happy for Quinn Hughes.
Quinn Hughes scored his first goal when Bo Horvat was named captain!
I was there. 50th anniversary year. We had such a good feeling about that team and future, before covid and Benning derailed everything. Crazy how fast things can change.
Good decision by the Canucks well done.
Let's go Quinn! 💪💪💪
Canucks having the worst media in Canada didn't allow them to have this to hold over the players heads. This is huge.
Congratulations Quinn
Welcome to the Captain Huggy era!!!
Congratz Quinn. you now get to answer the lame questions Van Media has to offer lol.
I think the main reason they didn’t go with Pettersson is because with uncertainty of his contract they don’t want to make him captain and then have him leave next year
Quinn Hughes is 😍😍
The right move. Always name your best player captain.
Woooo hoooo let’s gooooo captain Huggy bear!!!!!
Honestly never really saw him as captain material. Always a star player but hope this is the right decision he will have a hell of a lot of pressure.
This is the right choice.
" come all without , come all within , you'll not see nothing like the mighty Quinn "
I like him for telling Kuzma to stfu while he was trying his best to make Brock cry for clicks 2 yrs ago. Congrats Hughes!
thank you Jim Benning.
Lol Benning got so lucky he was even there at 7
@@lessthanthreemetal so lucky......as are most draft picks.
Miller should have got it straight the eff up, Putting so much pressure on these young bucks and let's face it, Miller is here for the next 8 seasons if not bought out, Let the vet lead the wave!
Markus naslund , mark Messier , Trevor Linden, Henrik sedin , and the kid from my PE class
Wonder about what he’s learned from Bo and the Sedins? That’s the Legacy!!
Huggy stepped up last year. Good decision.
Coach calls him Huggy 😁
LETS GO
W Captain
Quin absolutely deserves this
he will be regarded in bout 10 years as the greatest canucks captain since linden.
Uhh Naslund, Sedin…
@@DOW-E i am aware they both were captains, yes.
Call him Hughesy, Call him Huggie, call him Captain.
HUGG-IE!! HUGG-IE!! 🤗
Rick Tocchet refusing not to ingrain that nickname.
Either of EP or QH would be fair but I think this is the right call
Well it looks like he ain’t goin to the devils any time soon.
Why do they always have to say the number of the captain, coach and GM. Who cares if it is the 10th or the 92th
qWIN!
Good for Quinn. Petey was my choice but again contract problems. Captain Quinn!
He doesn’t look to happy 😂
That’s his resting face. He doesn’t smile too much lol. I can relate. Doesn’t mean we are unhappy.
this is awesome, only because hopefully this traps him here :) but we know how that worked with the last guy that wore the C
Jt miller must feel awesome...
Goodbye Petey, it was fun while it lasted. I hope they get a good package for you in 8 months.
Let's go huggy.
Perfect choice. Pick the guy that never smiles anyway to captain a losing team in a Canadian market. He’s made for this. Pettersson’s a smart guy.
What a strange way to present your new captain stating it could have been any of 3-4 guys on the team.
What a wierd take.
The Hockey media is always so flat. Their is no enthusiasm. It is a sad day as he mentioned but it's also a big day. Can't expect much on 23 year old I guess.
Cap Hughes for the W
