WWYDW: Take The Lead

Jul 20, 2016, 11:02 EDTUpdated:
We posted some of our takes, now it’s time for some of yours. With Dion Phaneuf now five months removed from being a member of the Leafs, Toronto is approaching a new season without a named captain.
On Sunday, we gave seven suggestions for options that should be considered. Some of you strongly agreed with me. Some of you felt I was missing players. Many of you didn’t realize the Matt Martin suggestion was sarcastic and solely done to make fun of the fact he’s never worn a letter at a high level.
But one thing’s for sure; we didn’t get much of a consensus.
So this time, rather than having everyone ride passenger to a post, let’s put you into the drivers seat. How should the Leafs approach their letters this year, and why? We’d like to hear your C’s, your A’s, your never-ever-gets-a-letters, and everything in between. Enlighten us, on this fine What Would You Do Wednesday morning.
