Penney to become first non-senior captain since Morgan Barron ’21.
They’re all Canadian. All but one played junior hockey with the Nanaimo Clippers of the British Columbia Hockey League, and they have all starred on the ice at Lynah Rink, yet 2008-09 co-captains Michael Kennedy and Colin Greening and co-alternate captains Tyler Mugford and Jared Seminoff will lead the Red in very different ways this season.
“Some people talk more, some people lead more on the ice,” Greening said. “One thing that we have all learned is that you kind of need to have both. You can’t necessarily be a person that just says ‘I lead by example on the ice.’ I think you need to be able to talk to guys, as well. Also, you can’t [just] be a guy that yells at guys in dressing room or talks to them all the time, you have to be able to perform on the ice.”
