Marlins Reveal their S85 Captains

[kirbithan 1,404]

SAN DIEGO — The San Diego Marlins have officially named their leadership core at the midseason mark! Due to their small roster that consisted of four players, the team chose to go without any letters to start out. However, with an expanded group of players, the time has now come to reveal the captains of the S85 Marlins squad!

 

CAPTAIN - SJIN  @Mint

Sjin has proven to be an absolute force in the locker room, aptly earning him the captain’s “C” with 83% of the votes from his teammates. Originally one of the waiver Marlins from S84, the center was drafted by the Miami Marauders 51st overall before making his return to San Diego in exchange for Tristen Gorlim, where he has since put up spectacular numbers with increased ice time. He was the center that the Marlins desperately needed. Sjin currently has 14 goals and 27 assists to his name this season. 

 

 

ASSISTANT CAPTAIN - VINCENT LAROCHE-GAGNIER @vincentlg2007

Another S84 Marlin who returned to San Diego at pick 22, LW Vincent Laroche-Gagnier— also known as VLG— has made a notable impact on the Marlins’ morale and the score sheet. Vincent has also shown off great prowess this season for the Marlins, leading them in points with 28 goals and 26 assists. He’s shown clear growth in his play on the ice and locker room activity this season, earning him the “A”. 

 

ASSISTANT CAPTAIN - ADAM RAGE @MrMom

A fresh new face in the Marlins locker room this season, RW Adam Rage has demonstrated his high potential after being selected 32nd overall. A standout in the Junior Showcase Tournament for the Brigade last offseason, Rage has helped generate a majority of the Marlins’ offense along with fellow linemates Sjin and VLG, earning him the assistant’s “A” for his efforts. He currently has 22 goals and 25 assists under his belt. 

 

ASSISTANT CAPTAIN - LACHLAN SUMMERS

G Lachlan Summers rounds out our leadership group, drafted at 6th overall. Another familiar face for the Marlins, Summers has backstopped them to multiple wins this season with a 0.918 save percentage and 2.36 GAA, as well as an impressive 4 shutouts. He is a vocal member of the locker room and aims to lead his team to a deep playoff run. Summers was also named an assistant captain in the previous season.
