Monsters 10th Anniversary: Captains

This weekend the Cleveland Monsters celebrate their 10th Anniversary.

Over the past ten seasons, there have been eight different captains.

Current captain, Ryan Craig, has been with the Monsters since they changed NHL affiliation from the Colorado Avalanche to the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Drafted in 2002 by the Tampa Bay Lightning, Craig is no stranger to success. As you may already know, he captained the Monsters to a Calder Cup Championship win in 2016. He led the Brandon Wheat Kings (2002, 2003) and the Wilkes Barre Scranton Penguins (2011, 2012) deep into the playoffs while captain.
