Carolina is an alternate dimension when it comes to players. They never regress or develop while playing here, as far as the general hockey world is concerned.
Remember the Commodore/Stillman for Corvo/Eaves deal? Ottawa fans were absolutely sure they were getting the Commodore from the Cup year, despite just about every Canes fan telling them that he had regressed heavily. That he spent his time putting himself out of position and that the fanbase had actually generated a PPG (penalty per game) mark for him alone.
It's also why Jordan Staal is consistently referred to as a "3rd line center" or why Skinner is only known for his concussions.
