Cam Neely Makes Surprising Admission About Bruins Captain Decision originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Bruins have two obvious candidates to become their next captain. Team president Cam Neely, however, is not convinced the organization needs to select either one.
Boston played the entire 2025-26 season without a captain after trading Brad Marchand to the Florida Panthers in March 2025. David Pastrnak, Charlie McAvoy and Hampus Lindholm instead wore alternate captain letters under first-year head coach Marco Sturm.
That arrangement may continue for another season.
Neely revealed Monday that the Bruins have not decided whether to fill the leadership vacancy before the 2026-27 campaign. He discussed the decision during an appearance on the WEEI/NESN Jimmy Fund Radio-Telethon.
