Showing a little love for Sam Carrick! Admittedly I wasn’t high on him but he’s been fantastic on the 4th line. 1G, 3A in 15GP at a +3 and 55% faceoffs. Plenty of physicality yet only 4PIM.

Should’ve edited that to ***best 4th line in years***
Sometimes I get distracted for a minute while watching but notice we’ve got the other team hemmed in their zone, and then Sam/Joe will start saying “Carrick” or “Edstrom” and I’m blown away by how these guys legit take it to the other team. Eddy had a play tonight where he single-handedly kept 3 or 4 Sharks occupied in their own zone for 10-15 seconds. Unreal.
3rd and 4th lines have definitely been the silver lining to the last couple weeks
4th line last year was good.
At this point, Carrick is playing well enough, and Mika bad enough, that you can legitimately swap the two, and we’ll get more production out of Kreider and Smith, as they are basically upgraded versions of Edstrom and Vesey, respectively (with Vesey also making a strong case that he might be better than his counterpart).
Carrick looking like an absolute dog so far and I’m here for it
Big fan.
Pretty clear that rempe is better suited in the AHL if we’re talking 4th line. But year Carrick looks good for like 1/3 of Goodrows salary
Very looking very good so far. But last night really made me miss Barclays.
So far, so good but I do wish he had better finishing skills. He doesn’t bury his high danger chances as much as he should. Granted, that could be said for 90% of all NHL players so hopefully over an 82 game season, he will improve.
I’m a fan. Def can hang at a high level
9 PIM actually 😜
The faceoff% is such a huge difference than just leaning entirely on troch, hopefully chytil is okay and can play third line still
Where are the chucklefucks bringing up spreadsheets and shit during the offseason when we picked up Carrick saying that he’d be the worse player on the planet, xGF this and puck possession that.
Real quiet now.
I owe you an apology, Sam. Guys legit awesome on 4th line.

The faceoff % is a nice to have always
Unsung hero for sure
