When Dustin Brown was stripped of his captaincy in May, we knew it would most likely be Anze Kopitar. And it is. Kopitar has been one of the best King players for a while, while Dustin Brown has struggled in the past few seasons. Kopitar has replaced Brown who has been captain since 2008 and he is in his prime and has been more of a leader than Brown. Kopitar had 25 goals and 74 points last season while Brown only had 11 goals and 28 points in 82 games as the King's captain which is his worst year in points since his rookie year. Kopitar seems like the perfect fit to be captain especially since he'll be staying a King for at least 8 more years as Dustin Brown is in his early 30's now and clearly won't be getting any younger. Was this a good choice? How will Kopitar do as captain? Will Brown get his game back? stay tuned....
