From changing a random flat tire on the 14th street bridge, to being a outspoken locker room leader, the fans of the Washington Capitals want #21 Brooks Laich to be the captain of the Washington Capitals.
We love Ovie, but Brooks is this teams' leader. He is the locker room voice of reason. He is the media golden boy. He is the face of the franchise.
Ovie needs to be free. That's how he thrives.
Make Brooks the captain. The Caps' fans want it.
