Today the New York Rangers officially named Jacob Trouba the teams next captain.

To much surprise, many fans felt this was the wrong decision and that veteran Chris Kreider was the most appropriate selection.

After the announcement, the Rangers released a video message from Trouba in which he explains what being a captain means to him:

It's a huge honor and something that means something, especially here in this organization. The history and the past players who have been captain before me.

As a kid, I grew up watching Leetch and Messier, Drury and Jagr. Those names were all very prominent to me when I was a kid. And then come here, you learn more about the history of the guys who were here before. You see the pictures and the jerseys.

Now it's my turn to carry the legacy on for those guys.

Teammate Artemi Panarin made an announcement online congratulating Trouba, and gave a hilarious comment as well:
