Link? (or just the website, if we can't post links in the forums) My googling efforts seem to have come up empty re: Eichel being given the C.
Just look up 'jack eichel'.
Seems to be figurative.
If you were being facetious to begin with, then I understand the original comment. He hasn't officially been named the new captain, though (we don't even know if Brian Gionta's leaving).

Always dangerous to make some young kid captain or a mistake like the Kings did with Kopitar... They hand him 10M a year in cap hit then make Captain when it should have been Jeff Carter if anything . There no way he was going to succeed being Captain with all that money locked up so he responded with 12 goals less than 40+ Cullen not to mention Jagr and Iginla his worst season .
