| Captain (ice hockey) - Academic Kids (290 words) |
| In NHL rules the sole official duty of a captain is to be the only player who is allowed to talk with referees about rule interpretations or poor calls. |
| Captains are also almost always some of the most skilled players and low scoring players rarely become team captains. |
| An example of a poor choice of captain was the decision to make Vincent Lecavalier when still a very young player, many felt that the decision severely harmed his play until the responsibilities were removed after two years. |
