Brandon Carlo Voices Choice for the Next Boston Bruins Captain
Notably, defenseman Brandon Carlo, who has donned the 'A' as an alternate captain, has emerged as a potential contender for the coveted 'C' next season. Amid these discussions, Carlo unequivocally supports Marchand's candidacy.
At the Pro-Am Gagné-Bergeron à Québec charity exhibition, where Marchand and Carlo united with teammates, Carlo shared his thoughts on Marchand's captaincy potential:
"Absolutely, I think he has all the required traits."
Carlo likened Marchand's contributions to Bergeron's unseen magic, observing his growth in mentoring young players. Regardless of the captaincy, Carlo emphasizes collective leadership:
"There will definitely be a period of transition,"
he noted, highlighting the need to build upon lessons from core leaders. Carlo pays homage to figures like Bergeron and Chara, acknowledging their lasting influence:"I'm very grateful to have been around guys like Patrice and Zdeno. But I see the positive in the sense that their legacy will live on within our group."
As a new Bruins era dawns, Bergeron and Chara's legacy steers the next generation into uncharted waters.
