I don't know if this means they're confirmed to have a captain... the "decision" on the matter could be that they decided to not have one again.

Granted, I do fully expect they'll announce it as Matthews.
 
People keep asking about it, Simmons wrote the other day that Shanahan told him they'll be a captain this season, so, I think the announcement is coming shortly (maybe next week)?
 
I think coming up means when they return to Toronto. And Shanahan said yesterday they would have a Captain this year. My bet is on Matthews, It's his team and he wants it.

I missed that Shanahan comment... for anyone else who did as well:

?I like our leadership group,? said Shanahan. ?I like that we have several different really good options. I?m not speaking out of school, I believe Mike (Babcock) and Kyle (Dubas) and I, we will have a captain this year. And I think we have several good options. Only one person is going to wear a ?C,? but you need lots of captains.

Pfttt, this threads solely just about Babcock saying there will be a captain. I'm still posting the actual captain thread.
