Yesterday, Montreal Canadiens prospect Kaiden Guhle received a very special honor. He was named captain of the Canadian team for the World Junior Hockey Championship. He will be assisted by Jake Neighbours and Cole Perfetti.
Hockey Canada didn't go halfway in announcing the three nominations. Pittsburgh Penguins captain and former gold medalist Sidney Crosby revealed the leaders in a video.
What more could you ask for? Crosby is, without question, one of the greatest leaders in NHL history.
A moment the three youngsters will remember for a long time.
