Landeskog, 19, becomes the youngest captain in NHL history, succeeding Milan Hejduk, who voluntarily relinquished his role after less than one season. With this move, the Avs show just how much they value Landeskog, who had an excellent rookie season last year, scoring 52 points in 82 games and winning the Calder trophy as the NHL's top rookie. Expect him to be a franchise cornerstone in Denver for many years to come.
