Sam Hallam has made up his mind.
He appoints Erik Karlsson, 32, as team captain in the World Cup of Hockey.
Tre Kronor will bring a star-studded team to the World Cup of Hockey in Ostrava, Czech Republic.
Two of the biggest stars, who also have the most experience, are running backs Victor Hedman and Erik Karlsson.
And so he is the last to be trusted as a team captain, Tre Kronor now confirms X-conto.
The first time
Karlsson is in Tre Kronor for the first time since 2016 and this is the first time he gets the C on his chest.
He was the team captain of the Ottawa Senators for four years (2014 – 2018), but in his current NHL team the Pittsburgh Penguins, Sidney Crosby is the captain.
Sweden meets the USA in the first appearance on Friday night at 20.20.
