Being captain of a National Hockey League team can be either awesome or terrible. If the team does well, the captain gets the credit. If the team’s lousy, the captain gets the criticism. September marked seven years since Mark Giordano was named captain of the Calgary Flames and luckily for him, the club has performed well.
After seven seasons, where does Giordano stack up among all the Flames’ captains?
First and foremost, the Flames have had 19 captains in club history.
Jarome Iginla is the best of them. He was captain for nine seasons (and a lockout).
