Yup. I just had a feeling they were going to win it all. Mentally tough team.

i knew they would win. i considered betting on them. chose not to, b/c when i gamble on sports i lose. i should have done it anyway, it would have guaranteed a pats win.

If they give Carle 5 mil per year I may start rooting for a new team. Did you see his turnover today? Dude is highly overrated.
- FlyerLifer


He's underrated. No defenseman goes through a Season without making some mistakes like he did today.

He's getting better and better. Anyone who says he turns the puck over a lot, just isn't paying attention or is inventing what they want to see.

Some more than others on this board invent what they see ALLLLOOOOOOOOOOOTAHHH

Believe me.

Im no huge fan. I think he's soft as (frank). You do however need guys that can move the puck. Carle can do so and with the right stay at home guy he is a good d-man. Not 5 million, but what can you do. The market is what it is.

I think hes valuable to the team, but I am far from a huge fan of the guy. Not a guy Id have out with a minute left, up by a goal, in the 3rd by any means.

He's stepped up this season for the most part.

There is nothing soft about Carle. For a smaller defenseman, he handles the play down low well, and wins a lot of battles with smart positioning and a good stick.

I feel like we need to either get him a better partner through trade or we trade him. That's just my opinion though.

He's not at all a physical player, nor does he have the strongest shot. If he had either one of these things and were taller, I'd be more in love with him as a player.

He's been doing that consistently all year. He made a bad decision in the game today that led to the Dubinsky goal. It happens to every defenseman occasionally. He's been rock solid and very consistent all year. He makes one mistake in a game, and the Carle haters come out like they've been waiting for it. It's sickening sometimes how he doesn't get the credit he deserves for the player he is. I wonder if some really watch the game.
