#Amerks LW Matt Ellis is wearing the captain's 'C' according to Don Stevens --- previously worn by Kevin Porter, who's up with the #Sabres.
Some thoughts on the matter: NHL teams ready to sign top college free agents
Note: We acquired Flynn after his NCAA career with Maine was done last year.

Jacobs set personal bests in 2012-13 w/ 25 goals and 53 points to earn Player of the Year for Prince George (WHL). Size, grit, moves well.
So lack of scoring explains the disparity in the level of play we've seen all season from period to period? I think not. Exhibit A, the last home game vs Ottawa from the 1st period to the 2nd.
The problems in this nightmare of a season are far deeper than a lack of scoring IMO.
I see the lack of consistent effort as a greater ill that is permeating this team. It must be eradicated, especially if the lack of effort is coming from the so called "leadership" . These scorers sure are taking the team a long way. :rolleyes: Time for a core shakeup and #29 is a the top of my list.
Pretty hefty percentage of the Cap for two guys. Perry's deal is actually 8 years for 69 million dollars. 3 million more than Getzlaf got over the term.
Wow!
