They did not for the 2025-26 season, opting for three alternate captains instead. David Pastrnak , Charlie McAvoy , and Hampus Lindholm wore the ‘A’s’ on their sweater, while many more veteran players emerged as leaders throughout the campaign.
Now, Marco Sturm is not too sure. He liked what the Bruins had, and he said it during breakup day on Sunday. “I always said I wanted a captain, but now, being through that first time, me as a head coach, not having a captain, I thought it went real well,” said Sturm.
“I just, maybe because guys were really close, the leadership group, I thought they did a good job overall. Everyone had their input. There was no outsider.
We always kept it really tight. So I actually didn’t mind it. ” “Having said that, that will be more of a conversation to have with Don [Sweeney], how we are going to move forward,” Sturm added.
