Yeah, I'm assuming the thought behind making Nieds the captain was, he'd beable to get everyone checked.
Regardless of the outcome of the tourney (gold ) I think Crosby would have been the safer choice, just based on how well he handles himself on and off the ice.
I'm not a big fan of his, but he is amazing in all facets of the game. (except for fighting, but he's allowed that 'flaw')
