6 Reasons Chris Pronger Is the Best Captain in the NHL
Chris Pronger is one of those rare breed of NHL players that fans love to hate. In March of this year The Hockey News had Pronger in a fourth place tie (with Todd Bertuzzi) as the NHL’s most hated player. The Flyers current captain trailed only Matt Cooke, Patrick Kaleta and Sean Avery.
In February of this year, FOX Sports, voted Pronger the NHL’s third dirtiest player, behind Cooke and Avery.
Despite the venomous hatred that is thrown in his direction, you would be hard-pressed to find many that would not want Pronger leading their team onto the ice. Well, maybe Oilers fans would not want to see him back on their club, but any other team, surely would.
There are a number of reasons why a team would want Chris Pronger as their captain, what follows are those reasons.
