Hank Balling: Who Should Be the Next Sabres Captain?

My guess is Okposo is the bridge to one of Dahlin/Cozens

First person to sign long term gets a C.

Dahlin, it’s his team

Nice write up HB

Dahlin, it’s his team

I would rather give it to okposo or tuch and let dahlin focus on his game. He still has lots of potential to tap I would rather not distract him now. That’s why I would lean towards okposo because you know he won’t be around long term.

Long term Dahlin is going to do more for this team than anyone. I think you gotta offer it to him. Tuch is SUCH a solid option but you got to give the nod to Dahlin.

I respect the hell outa Okie but he’s a few years away from being LESS than a role player.

Yes and dahlin is a few years away from peak. Smooth transition.

Nice Hank!! Wouldn't surprise me if it was either Tuch or Okposo

Get rid of about 5 certain players before him. There really isn't anyone having a good offensive year other than Judge. Amazing how much losing Carpenter hurt. And the bullpen has been bad.

One day Cashman will finally learn that SP matters, this team is a mess.

Cashman needs to go, time for a fresh mind.

Definitely, they are lucky they have such a big lead, they need to square sh!t away.

Okposo = C
Dahlin = A
Tuch = A

Should be Tuch

DAD

Tuch should be the captain.

But all signs are pointing to Okposo. Which I personally don’t want seeing he is a UFA and most likely would like to contend for a cup come trade deadline.

So I think the best thing to do is go with Dahlin Okposo Tuch and Cozens as A’s for the season. Then if Okposo comes back to Buffalo name him captain.

Monumental health problems is probably pretty wrong to say. He had a bad allergic reaction to a medication that was prescribed to him for post concussion symptoms.
