Who do you think will be the next leaf Captain since they won't have one till at least the end of the season and into free agency.
IMHO if SS doesn't sign with TB and signs with TO then he would be the next captain, if he doesn't I can see JVR or Morgan Riley or perhaps they won't have one.
That has happen 5 times in there history - 2009-10, 2008-09 and again in 1988-89, 1987-88 and in 1986-87.

It's sad that my team hasn't had a captain retire as a captain since 1957 - Ted Kennedy
George Armstrong gave up the C to Dave Keon in 1967, played 2 more years under Keon as captain then retired.
 
Morgan Reilly when the time is right. As of now, I think the Leafs will go with 3 Alternate Captains. Unless the Leafs get Stamkos in the off season.
 
By dealing Dion, this set up not only the cap space to sign Stamkos (well, the extra cap space if needed) but a bargaining tool as well...."Not only will we give you 7 years at X million per, but you will be the next Captain of your hometown team, fullfilling a boyhood dream, playing under the greatest coach in the game today and with that along with your star power, you will earn as much if not more in endorsements as your salary, sign right here on the dotted line please, Mr. Stamkos"
 
For the sake of his own career, Stamkos ought not to sign with the Leafs. Can anyone remember a "star" or rising star who signed a long term lucrative contract with the Leafs and didn't burn out? I can't

Sundin.

Just finished listening to Joey Vendetta on the Fan 590. He has friends in very high places, very ,very connected person in entertainment and sports, Someone very close to SS has stated that if SS goes to free agency he only wants to go to one team... DA LEAFS! He only wants to play for 2 teams TB and DA LEAFS
