dlamb 1,326 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Hello Preds fans! GM Dakota Lamb here, proud to announce the team's captains for the upcoming season. Fresh off a Continental Cup victory, the roster remains mostly the same, just with the unfortunate cap casualty of former team Captain Bogdan Trunov and 2nd line centre Omi Aberg. His absence means we have an opening for team captain, an absence which will be filled by the team's longest-serving member. Expectations in Warsaw have never been higher, and the pressure is there from players, fans, and media to repeat and defend our title until the end. I'm confident we can do just that with this roster, with the following players leading us back to the promised land. Without further ado, your S85 Warsaw Predators Captains! Alternate 1: Tavish DeGroot @rory A first-time team captain, DeGroot established career highs in Season 84 in a number of categories, culminating in a monster playoff run for a two-way defenceman. They are one of the most outspoken members in the Predators locker room, and is rightly respected as one of the main leaders. An easy choice to fill the "A" gap left by our team's new captain. Alternate 2: Brian Payne @Scurvy A returning Alternate Captain, Brian Payne has blossomed into one of the VHL's premier defensive defenseman, as proven by his 2nd-place finish in Jake Wylde Trophy voting in Season 84. We expect much of the same in Season 85. His leadership on and off the ice is invaluable to the entirety of Warsaw. And presenting... the 4th Captain in Warsaw Predators Franchise history: Zach Kisslinger II @Kisslinger As previously stated, Kisslinger II is Warsaw's longest-serving player, as well as the team's longest serving Captain. Had a rough go of it last regular season, but absolutely showed out in the playoffs (14+15=29) en route to a Continental Cup. He looks to improve, if that's even possible, in Season 85 with the C on his chest, whilst also switching to play Centre for the first time in his professional career. Always upbeat and encouraging to the team, no doubt in my mind that he'll make a great captain. Congrats to all 3! LFGW!
