Confirmed Trade: [PIT/LAK] Jeff Carter (@50%) for 2022 cond. 2nd/3rd round pick and 2023 cond. 3rd/4th round pick

[redcard]

Yeah about that blowout...

If you think about it, the game was essentially 2 different blowouts meaning Jeff was twice as likely to score.

 

[66-30-33]

5 goals 0 assists in his last 2 games.

9 goals 2 assists in 14 games and a +9, 1 goal away from 400. Looks soooo good here. Season is done for the Pens, onto the playoffs!

Carter performs best in the playoffs. He always brings it. Happy for him and the Pens. Remember our good will! Let's continue this fruitful trading relationship!

This has been a great trade for the Pens. Hes been solid for them.

 

[kilowatt]

With Carter playing so well, I am actually optimistic about this trade potentially converting into a second and third for LA, which will be pretty nice.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

9 goals in 14 games from our "third line center". Gotta admit he's been much, much better than I expected.

Then again I'm still jaded because of that fraud Derrick Brassard. Big Game Brass? More like Big Game Ass.

How good is Brown now?

Always loved when Carter started putting together a Cy Young statline, that's how you knew he was feeling it. Real good sign going into the playoffs, where he's an animal too.

 

[Tender Rip]

He’s been lucky as sin also, but the great part about the trade is that he is a big guy who will shoot and go to the net. He is getting rewarded handsomely - including pucks just bouncing off him and into the net - long may it last.

We’ve needed that a ton. And we need it more because our stars do it less and less.

you cant have my special handsome boy

you cant have my special handsome boy

We will have him back by 10!

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

What a pick up by Hextall, simply amazing how Carter has played since being acquired!!

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Carter's been the best Penguin since he was traded to Pittsburgh.

Carter's been the best Penguin since he was traded to Pittsburgh.

Every time I see him shoot it just feels like it’s going to go in

 

[lawrence]

I forgot this trade happened.

great trade for the happy feet’s.

 

[Osprey]

Is it too late for LA to get the 1st rounder that he would've fetched if we'd known that he'd produce like this?

Oh well. Maybe this evens out getting Gaborik for even cheaper in 2014.

A lot of folks forgot about it, and then there are the Flyer fans who are still trying to forget about it!

 

[PAZ]

I thought it was a heavy price to pay for a washed up vet.

Definitely wrong on this one, Carter looks like he found the fountain of youth and reverted back to his prime.

 

[66-30-33]

So yeah...got any more vets you wanna get rid of LA? *cough*Brown*cough*

@kilowatt

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

I absolutely despise that the Pens and Isles are playing each other in the 1st round.. I want both teams to go thru

He's our new DAD. I miss our old DAD Matt Cullen though.

@kilowatt

he would probably be the perfect complement to crosby too lol. 30 goal season without a doubt

 

[2-4 Slashin]

This Kings Fan is so happy to see Carter doing so well playing for the Pens. He’s still got game but the Kings system being in flux, didn’t allow him to play his game. Great trade for both teams! And for Carter!!

 

[DesertPenguin]

This is unsustainable production, but no question he's been our best F since the trade. He's that 'Phil Kessel on the third line' kind of X factor for us right now that creates matchup nightmares.

Carter is well worth it for us so I really do hope we are giving you that 2nd and 3rd round picks. That will definitely be a win-win trade for both teams.
