Canes sign Brett Carson (1 year, 2 way, 500k/105k)

Very glad to see this done. Carson has matured and is steady enough back there.

On exactly what planet can we believe it when JR says something like this? Ask Bates Battaglia how reliable what JR says to the press is.

Not saying it might not be true in his mind or might not happen but, if any player is looking at that as a guarantee...well, they better be buying a map of Charlotte 'cause they're probably gonna need it.

And moreover....does "the world" really care what JR says about Brett Carson and if it rings true or not? JR could trade him tomorrow and no one would even really bother to care...except some Canes fans.

Hell, with JR's track record, were i Carson, i'd be expecting a trade after that statement.

I know that I am (and possibly apolinar, too) very happy to see Carson back. I like what this kid brings and hope he's with the Hurricanes for a long long time.
