Why do the wings have their captians patches on their right shoulder?

Question

Evey other team ever has had them on their left (im pretty sure).

Answer 1

I have no idea and I would like them to put them back.

Answer 2

When the League switched to Rebok jerseys they made the Winged-wheel larger. The C and A will no longer fit above the tail end of the winged-wheel and had to switch sides.

Answer 3

i have no clue every other team wears the patch on the left side.

Answer 4

Found this on a web site regarding the moving of the "C":

Traditionally, the captain's "C" is worn on the player's left shoulder — this is true across the league. But apparently, because the tip of the wing logo reaches too high, the "C" would have collided with the confluence of three different types of material. So to avoid that problem, Niklas Lidstrom's "C" will swap sides starting this year.
