The St. Louis Blues are expected to discuss naming a new captain when training camp begins. "We're discussing that now," GM Doug Armstrong Armstrong said. "We want to get the input of some of the other people in our organization - the coaches, some people in our management staff - and we'll have that decision by the first day of training camp ... whether we go with a group of players that will make up a leadership group or we name a captain." David Backes, Alex Steen or Barret Jackman could be considered favorites to be named the Blues' next captain.
