Well as for team captains being traded
in there first year in the NHL the
Edmonton Oilers traded their captain
Ron Chiperfield to the Quebec Nordique
right at the trading deadline for
Goaltender Ron Lowe
In their second year of existence
The Edmonton Oilers again right at the trade
deadline traded their captain, this time
B.J. McDonald to the Vancouver Canucks
along with the rights to winger Ken
Berry for Garry Lariviere and the rights
to Lars Gunner Petterson
as for more captain trivia, the next Edmonton
captain was Lee Fogilin who was later traded to
the Buffalo Sabres, after him was Wayne Gretzky
who was traded to L A, then came Kevin Low who
only this year was traded to the N Y Rangers
so that every captain the Edmonton Oilers have had
has been traded.
The present captain is Craig McTavish and we'll
just have to wait and see.
well talk to you later
Steve
