List of current NHL captains and alternate captains Rule 6.2 of the 2008â€“09 Official NHL Rulebook indicates that "[only] when the captain is not in uniform, the coach shall have the right to designate three alternate captains. This must be done prior to the start of the game."[1][2] Many NHL teams with a named captain select more than two alternate captains and rotate the "A" among these players throughout the season.[3] There are currently seven teams without captains: the Arizona Coyotes, the Buffalo Sabres, the New York Islanders, the New York Rangers, the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Vancouver Canucks, and the Vegas Golden Knights.
