Yes he was the Captain But. Assistant captains had all of the discussions with the officials. I will try to dig up the league rule.

HVEEPOKER

IIHF , NHL, Hockey Canada.
Nhl rule 6.1 No playing coach, playing Manager or Goaltender shall be permitted to act as Captain or Alternate Captain.
Rule is found on NHL.com
Even though it was established that Luongo was the leader of the team, He was not able to carry out the Captains duties on Ice during Games. Alternate captains had to.
So there ya go....................

I am in the process of getting a new Leafs Table. As soon as it is all said and done and it finally arrives I will announce a cash game to break it in.
Still looking to buy some custom chips also.
One thing at a time though... lol

And here's some more goalie Captains... Bower was not one of them lol...

The last goalie to be named an NHL captain was Montreal Canadiens goaltender Bill Durnan, who took the role in t he 1947. Before that, George Hainsworth of the Montreal Canadiens and John Ross Roach of the Toronto St. Patricks were goalie captains. Chicago Blackhawks backstop Chuck Gardiner became the first and only goalie to win the Stanley as a captain.

I am not sure but I believe the league instated this rule sometime around 1967 with the first expansion. It was a pain in the ass and took too much time for the goalie to skate down to the other end of the ice to ask about a call.
Like I said Luongo could be the captain yes, but the refs would not have to discuss anything with him during a game. this would fall on the alternates.
Turk Broda was Captain of the leafs many moons ago and had the C on his jersey. I have a picture of him along with other great leafs on the wall in my den.

Sorry Ron but....

The Hockey Hall of Fame displays a picture of Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Turk Broda wearing the Captain's "C", but he never actually served in that capacity, and he was actually wearing Toronto team Captain Syl Apps' sweater

And it actually was in the late 40's that the league instituted the rule that goalies could not wear a "C"...

You need to verify these things... I'm a little older remember.... :)

I should be prop betting you instead of pushing my K's against your 10's.

Sorry could not find the exact date that the NHL instated the new Captains rule. I figured it would have been around the time of the first expansion.

I am in the market for a 8 person round or octagon table. I prefer a nice rail, but no upholders.
