New York Rangers D Kevin Shattenkirk doesn’t deserve captaincy despite Quinn connection

Hired as head coach by the New York Rangers, David Quinn will be forced to decide on who his first captain will be. Of course, this decision has been looming due to the fact the Rangers did not name a captain after trading Ryan McDonagh to the Tampa Bay Lightning.

There is some debate amongst fans as to who the next captain should be. Some, like ESNY’s Brandon Spreckels, feel that Mats Zuccarello is the natural leader that the Rangers want wearing the C. However, ESNY’s Frank Curto feels that Chris Kreider is the right man for the job.
