An NHL insider may have just leaked who the Boston Bruins are going to announce as captain whenever they decide to announce one.
Right now, the Boston Bruins are rocking three alternate captains: David Pastrnak, Charlie McAvoy, and Elias Lindholm.
Elias Lindholm is currently filling in for Hampus Lindholm who is out with an injury right now.
Right before the Bruins first game of the season, they announced on social media that Hampus Lindholm was going to wear the third "A" on his chest.

Following the Bruins 4-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning, an NHL insider made some comments, and it seems like we know who is going to be named the next captain.
David Pastrnak clear leader for captain
Right now, it's pretty clear that Pastrnak is the leader on the Bruins roster, and everyone can see it.
NHL insider Jimmy Murphy was speaking about it on The Sick Podcast - Bruins Vibes, and this is what he had to say:
Although he doesn't have a "C" on his jersey, David Pastrnak has taken on the #NHLBruins leadership responsibilities
@MurphysLaw74: "He is the defacto captain of the Boston Bruins right now"

The Bruins entered the season without a captain, because Sturm believed that they didn't have a clear leader.
Well know it's pretty obvious that Pastrnak is that guy for the Boston Bruins.
It will be interesting to see if the Bruins end up announcing a captain this year or not.
