I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner.

Not that I'm happy about it.

Good luck, Ryan!

We just have an excess of 4th liners. DEFINITELY should have kept Brown though.

Sad he didn't get more of a chance but thats the nature of the game. No one will ever question his work ethic. A true professional. GL to him wherever he ends up!

Carter should not be a 4th liner.

He should be our 3rd line center.

Is this a precursor to some kind of trade?

True, but still an excess of bottom 6 players.

Doesn't surprise me yet I am bummed we couldn't have used him as trade bait. I think he is worth at least a 5th rounder.
So I am assuming that Murray is doing this to free up cap as well as a roster spot. I think he is risking to see if anyone claims him if not he can be sent to Syracuse right?

We have plenty of prospects knocking at the door, so he's expendable. Good luck to Carter though

I agree, this move doesn't impact the Ducks at all.

Dude had one hell of a work ethic, it sucks to see him go, but its not entirely shocking news. I had Carter figured in as Marchants replacement when Todd retired; HOWEVER, Chipchura's signing probably put an end to that. There's still a decent chance he ends up in the AHL, in which case w=he can easily jump up as a bottom 6 or short term top 6 line fill in.

Best of luck to the guy who brought it every shift.
Good Luck Ryan!

I agree.

But he held first chair in RC's doghouse, which seems to be an important position as well.

No, but it's still a shame. He was easy to like. Always put in the effort, seemed like a real good guy, and I still think he could be a decent enough bottom six forward.

Just thought about this again, Chippy is/ should be our 3rd line center.

Yeah, Carter was our #5 or maybe even #6 center, after Getz, Koivu, Chipchura, Marchant and mabye Bonino. He's about equal in talent IMO as March and Chip, but Chipchura brings the nastiness, and Marchant the leadership. Hope he lands somewhere so he can become the next Drew Miller.

What is the bottom 6 shaping up as?

Beleskey-Chipchura-Bodie
Blake-Marchant-Parros

No idea where to stick Blake, assuming, of course, Lupul plays in the top 6.

Beleskey/Marchant/Blake
Bodie/Chip/Parros

no idea, right now things are all sorts of crazy.

Good luck to Carter where ever he may land.

I am disappointed seeing us jettisoning a good faceoff man, faster than average skater that was afraid of no one and proved it, and a hustler.

Especially in those first two departments.

We sorely need to have more speed, and win more faceoffs... especially in our own zone, and on the PK. We give our opponents way too much time in our zone by losing faceoffs. I suspect it's one of the keys to improving our PK %.
