I'm thrilled with the return also. And I'd make that trade again and again. Carter is going to have that rep until he starts scoring at a higher rate in the playoffs.

exactly. only he can change the perception others have by changing his on-ice performance.

I don't see it that way. If that's the outlook you want to have on, that's fine. He didn't force Howson and Nash to do anything. Nor did he go into seclusion in his Sea Isle house. He did the right thing to take some time to himself so as to not react emotionally and say something he didn't mean. That reaction was the mature way to handle it. Reports I saw said that he was fine in Columbus and was a good teammate. I don't think he sulked at all. This is just more media driven bs. And if he was unhappy at Columbus, I don't blame him one bit. He had every right to be.

He didn't? They didn't hear from him the weekend after the trade, meaning he didn't answer his phone or call them himself. Columbus had to send a contingent out to South Jersey as a search party, basically.

this, and this. and this is so gddamn typical of a rangers game. 0-0 or 1-1 until the third period and they score. i will be absolutely shocked if this score is anything other than 1 or 2-0 (en).

No he didn't. And no they didn't have to send out a search party. They would have talked. If Carter was emotionally upset about the trade. Which I'm sure he was. He did the absolute right thing to take some time to himself. And collect his thoughts and emotions. He's entitled to that.

I definitely hate the Devils more. They've caused much more misery in the lives of Flyers fans in the last 2 decades than the Rangers have.

Their (Devs) fans are less annoying, probably because there are so few of them.

One of 'em is gonna come out of this series and play for the Cup, and it's out of my hands. Just hoping to see a good series, decided by the teams, and see what happens in the Final.

funny, i have both right now. their just checking the hell out of each other. there have been about 6-8 really good chances the whole game, and i think that's being generous. doc sure is yelling a whole lot though.

it's there, it's just being defused by the rangers defensive play.
