The letter "A" on a hockey jersey signifies an alternate captain. Typically, a hockey team has two alternate captains. An alternate captain in hockey assists the team captain in leadership responsibilities, such as communicating with officials and motivating teammates.
Some hockey teams choose to have three alternate captains instead of a captain and two alternates. This decision can vary based on team dynamics and leadership preferences.
