"I don't think it has set in yet, to be honest. The history of this franchise, the great captains they've had, and now getting your own name added to that extraordinary list, it's a huge honor that I'm thankful for. I'm excited for the opportunity and the challenge this will bring.
Honestly, your first initial reaction is how big of an honor it is. I've always said, St. Louis has been the best thing for me. Getting the opportunity to come here and play, winning the Stanley Cup and now [being named captain], it's an opportunity for us to work together and get back to where we feel we should be as an organization. I'm looking forward to the challenge and the opportunity to lead this team." - Schenn on being named Blues captain
