EDIT THE DESIGN TO INCLUDE GOALIES BEING UNABLE TO WEAR THE C OR A AND TALK ABOUT ROBERTO LUONGO.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

On page 8 of the Official NHL Rulebook, it's stated that "No playing Coach or playing Manager or goalkeeper shall be permitted to act as Captain or Alternate Captain". Technically, the last goalkeeper to wear the C was Roberto Luongo during his time with the Vancouver Canucks in 2010, although he had no actual rights as a captain, making Bill Durnan of the Montreal Canadiens the last goalie to be a captain and perform captaincy duties.

Article body:
Many hockey leagues across the globe also have an additional third or alternate jersey, like the NHL. These jerseys usually have a special design as the crest and are usually part of a leaguewide initiative or event, such as the Winter Classic or Stadium Series. However, many other leagues have different alternate jerseys for many different things. For example, the Sioux Falls Stampede in the USHL rebrand to the "Sioux Falls Fighting Wiener Dogs" for a night and wear a special jersey with a group of dachshunds stampeding forwards, although they changed the logo to a dachshund holding a hockey stick.

NHL teams also have special nights where they recognize a significant cultural group or event where they will have special jerseys worn in warmups to show their appreciation. Leaguewide events like Pride night will have special LGBTQIA+ designs on the jersey and players can opt to have rainbow stick tape to show support in addition to the jersey worn during warmups. However, each team has their own nights for special events. During an exhibition match between the Calgary Flames and Edmonton Oilers, defenseman Ethan Bear, who is of Cree descent, was given a jersey with his last name on it written in Cree syllabics.
