Who would be a great candidate to wear the C in the future?

I don't know, Weight's played for a lot of teams, but I think the Islanders would love to keep him on. Just look what they did with Garth Snow.
Doug had Tavares and Moulson rooming with him at his house (not sure if they're still there). He's really committed to a team that most people would understand if he up and left.
The next captain of this team should be Richard Park. Such an under-rated player in so many ways. For those of you who don't know him, he plays a lot like a veteran Chris Kelly - great PKer, blocks shots, takes key faceoffs, creates a lot of chances with speed but doesn't have the best finish.
Other captain candidates would be Mark Streit or Radek Martinek and maybe Trent Hunter or Sean Bergenheim as new assistant captains.
