A Canadian hockey star, Vincent Lecavalier earned fame as one of the young stars who led the Tampa Bay Lightning to their first Stanley Cup victory in 2004. Vincent was named the MVP of the Canadian National Team in 2004 and played for Team Canada at the 2006 Olympics.
Lecavalier was named captain of the Lightning late in the 1999-2000 NHL season. He was later stripped of the captaincy after the end of the 2000-01 NHL season. It was decided by Lightning management that he was too young and had had enough pressures as a star player.
