Just a thought as i was reading adrian daters article in the dp about footer. I see the decision of appointin foote captain less of an honor and more of a slap in the face to stastny. everybody thought that after stastnys rookie season he would take the role of leader and the face of the new young avalanche. well, after a mediocre injury plagued season last year it is obvious he did not live up to the organization's expectations. But Foote is temporary. How many years does the 38 yr old touch guy have in him? He is simply filling the void until Stastny matures to the point where he was supposed to be last year. While Adam may not be an NHL star any more, he is less of a dissapointment than the rest of our team last year.
