In the aftermath of Patrice Bergeron's departure from the Boston Bruins' captaincy, the hockey world is rife with speculation that Brad Marchand might step into the storied role as the team's 21st 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.
