Sorry, I should have written it more directly rather than posing a question.  I don't think most of the individual player stats are relevant to their leadership role especially the points or penalty minutes obtained while playing for another team.  e.g. Gionta's stats with the Devils or Canadiens are not very relevant to his captaincy with the Sabres.  Total games played, makes some sense, but before any of the others I'd prefer seeing an indication of his prior leadership. i.e. promotion from alternate with same team, captaincy or alternate elsewhere, etc.
