Richards is at his career goals per season pace, his linemates (Penner and Stoll) are bringing him down.

Don't let Frank see the post, he will automatically start tweeting:
Richards out all night doing drugs, girls and drinking

He's such a joke. Making things up out of thin air is supposed to be the bailiwick of basement bloggers. But there are bloggers out there (and here) with higher standards of journalistic integrity than that dogpack.

In my opinion, i don't think Carle is even worth that much. I think he's a dime a dozen type of Dman. He's not an offensive threat and he's not physical. If you're going to demand that type of salary, the dman is usually one or the other.
- Flyer_Nation71



The facts refute your opinion. Carle is currently 17th in points in the NHL among defenseman. He is 2 points out of being in the top 10 in points among NHL defenseman . He is one of the top scoring NHL defensmen in ES points. So how exactly is he not an offensive threat? I can show you plenty of defenseman who command a high salary without being highly physical. Just as an example on the same team, Timonen has 40 hits in 54 games, Carle has 34 in the same amount of games.
Saying Carle is a dime a dozen type of D man is not only inaccurate, it is ridiculous. Carle will be one of the top UFA available defenseman in the Off Season, for good reason.

I'm not a Carle hater.... But do you think that maybe Carle's offensive numbers may be slightly increased because he plays on the highest scoring team in the league?

Carle is not a Dime a Dozen Defenseman, but the only reason he will be a top UFA defenseman is because of how weak this year's crops of UFA defenseman are. Carle is a slightly above average Defenseman, that is going to get paid because he got lucky in the year he went to UFA.

I'm pretty sure Carle contributes to this team being high scoring, not benefitting from it.

It used to annoy me a bit at first, but I think I'm actually going to miss your defending of Carle after he's gone.

Facts can be misleading when someone takes them out of context....

Example:

Columbus discovered America in 1492... Fact

Person's Conclusion... America was discovered in 1492... False!

Carle contributes greatly to the team being a top offensive team. His ability to move the puck and make plays is a great asset to the team, and it's scoring ability. Carle would be a top defenseman available in free agency regardless of who else is available. Carle is far better then just slightly above average. And what he's going to get paid has nothing to do with being lucky in the year he went to UFA. It has to do with how good of a player he is.

I don't really considering it defending the player. More like just putting the facts out there and letting them stand on their own merit.
