For the second straight NHL campaign, it appears no one will wear the "C" for the New York Rangers.
The club won't name a captain for the 2019-20 season, Larry Brooks of the New York Post reports.
Marc Staal, Chris Kreider, Mika Zibanejad, and Jesper Fast will serve as alternates, adds Brooks.
The Rangers haven't had a captain since Ryan McDonagh, who donned the "C" from 2014-18 before being traded to the Tampa Bay Lightning.
