If he were ever going to waive the NMC it could just be for Vancouver. - Why move him - he has been playing well but his style isn't the perfect fit it was under Hanlon.<BR/>2) Why is Clark playing on the third line - because the Caps are Mark Bonatuccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04028759195766716450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14427229.post-63587276509321037012008-10-13T14:31:00.000-04:002008-10-13T14:31:00.000-04:00Better question is who will be captain if Clark ha...Better question is who will be captain if Clark has to start being scratched for not producing anything.<BR/><BR/>Or course he gets a free pass for now for playing with Flash.MacVechkin, fka JRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04894218439459813222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14427229.post-79497122107821767402008-10-13T14:27:00.000-04:002008-10-13T14:27:00.000-04:00Tyler, when Konowalchuk was our captain, he was a ...Tyler, when Konowalchuk was our captain, he was a 3rd liner. Same with Halpern, and really for the most part, Hunter (Behind Pivonka and Oates).
