Dax McCarty has always found himself a key member of the team. Since 2011, he's been a regular starter. Then, he was named captain following Thierry Henry's retirement, which gives you an idea of how much faith the team has always had in him. His passing, his defending, and his high energy play style allowed him to move seamlessly from Mike Petke's to Jesse Marsch's style of play. This year, he was able to pick up All Star honors (albeit on a bit of a technicality, as Frank Lampard was injured and needed to be replaced), and, most importantly, captained the New York Red Bulls to their second Supporters' Shield in three years.
