Description
When David is named captain of his hockey team, he accepts with enthusiasm, but wonders what it takes to be a true team leader.
He looks to his favourite players who are also captains — Wendel Clark of the Toronto Maple Leafs and Wayne Gretzky of the Los Angeles Kings — for inspiration. And as the two teams face each other in the Stanley Cup playoffs, he watches how they tackle their responsibilities to their teams.
