It's not clear who the next captain of the Boston Bruins is going to be, but Boston Bruins superstar David Pastrnak made some unexpected comments about replacing Brad Marchand as the next captain of the Boston Bruins.
The Boston Bruins had a surprisingly busy trade deadline, many believed they were going to be sellers, but they weren't prepared for what the Bruins were set to pull off moving some important players like Charlie Coyle, Trent Frederic, Brandon Carlo, and Brad Marchand.
Marchand was carrying on the legacy that Zdeno Chara, and Patrice Bergeron had for awhile as he was serving as the captain of the organization, but now there are two candidates to take over for Brad Marchand being David Pastrnak, and Charlie McAvoy.
Fans are in between on who they would rather have serve as the next captain of the Boston Bruins, but Pastrnak made some unexpected comments about possibly being the next captain.
Pastrnak speaks on being the Boston Bruins next captain
When asked about it, David Pastrnak stated that he hasn't thought about it much, and he is already in a leadership role with the 'A' on his chest, but he knows that if he were to be presented as the next captain, that it comes with a bigger role.
"I (haven't thought) about it honestly. I got the A and I haven't changed a bit. Obviously the role changes a bit. You lead more but you just try to stay being yourself. Right now, we have 17 games left and that's my main focus, to build on those two games. We played pretty good hockey, the last two in a win in Tampa and a painful loss in Carolina. This has to be our standard for the rest of the season and we'll see where it takes us."
Don Sweeney has made it clear that there will not be another captain announced this season, but left the door open for next year.
Pastrnak would be a great choice for the next captain of the Boston Bruins organization, and it will be interesting to see if he or McAvoy get it.
