Sean Couturier's special nickname says a lot about how he's perceived in the locker room

Was his absence one of the biggest reason why the Flyers season was so bad? Of course, he would have helped a lot, but at the end of the day, the team was just lacking talent and structure.

With that being said, Couturier's return next season will help in different aspect. He will bring back some big leadership, on and off the ice, and his qualities as a hockey player will ensure that some players will not have to take some responsibilities that are clearly not for them yet.

And one example proves it. Several years ago, Couturier was named "The Answer" in the locker room because he was always willing to speak his mind.

After reading that, you shouldn't have any doubts anymore about the identity of the Flyers next captain.
