I remember as arguing with Leaf fans this year that Carlo would be on their top pair with Reilly.
They countered by saying he wouldn't even make the starting lineup

Annother bust from a failed 2015 draft for Boston.

Carlo is fantastic. I'd like to see a little more offense and less of the bambi act but there is no denying the huge leap forward in his own zone. He has the lowest GA/60 of any D in the league this year. Pretty impressive. He also had the lowest GF/60, making him the league's most boring player haha. Krug is so flashy and gambles so much that it really helps to have someone shutting down the right side.
He's going to be more expensive than I want him to be in June.

This is just not at all correct. As a rookie he played on the top pair....
A few Leafs fans trying to say Dermott > Carlo probably want to take that back around now.
Carlo in his first playoff series had a heck of a showing.
oh i remember.... Dermott is still a bottom pairing Offensive Defensemen IMO.
I'm not even sure he would make the Bruins lineup. He would be the bruins be 8th/9th depth defensemen and with Vaakaneinen/Andersson/coming up soon he would probably have slim to none chance to make the team.
Carlo has evolved into a 1st pairing shut down Defensemen

He even looks like McDavid.The Oilers were going to take him 33rd overall in 2015 if they hadn't made *that* trade with the Islanders.

He’s a Bruin I’m so glad I’m eating crow on. I thought he was big, and smart but insanely soft, and he’s started to develop an edge that I like.
I think he was the Bruins best d-man in the series against the Leafs. He was unfortunately injured at the end of the season in the last two playoffs, so I’m glad he was in this one.

Indeed. Boston having Carlo and Debrusk from the 2015 draft (first two rounds) is great, but it could have been better.

With the sweep, I watched all the rest of the games in BOS/TOR. Looked like a RH Adam Pelech without the pattern baldness who (also) kept a top center in check.
