I'm not sure how much it helps the discussion, but we were told a couple of years ago by our state office that the person who attends the coaches/captains meeting is the head coach for that game. This was to address the situation where the HC doesn't feel the need to attend the meeting him/herself. I guess one logical implication is that, at least here in snowy cold Utah, there is no official state designation of who the HC is. The determining factor, as far as we are concerned, is who attends the meeting.
