This isn't a rumor -- it's a continuation of a prior ACGM.
Well, yes, it's not a rumour, but it was written about by a
Philly Hockey Columnist
I question if he's taken leave of his senses as he also speculated that Tippett and Foerster wouldn't be pieces were interested in.
To answer his open ended questions, we can make Gudas the captain for two seasons, he's a perfect stop gap while the youth mature. He has the follow me factor, he has the intensity and emotion, and he's the last one off the ice every night high fiveing the entire team before tossing his stick to a fan. Everything about that tells me he would be a great short term captain.
As to Risto, I like Risto as a pickup, I've taken flack for liking Risto as a pickup, but he's an underwater contract and even in this article referenced as a third pairing defenseman (I know he's 2nd pair and can eat minutes, but I further question why Bailey speculates we would give up a major piece for a pending UFA and a bottom pairing cap dump, when a shiny new RW that fits the age group is sitting right there in great supply, and they're both goal scorers top which is what we need)
