Ryan Parent Traded, Could Carter Be Next?
Today it was anounced that the Flyers had dealt defenseman Ryan Parent to the Predators for the rights to defenseman Dan Hamhuis and a draft pick in 2011. I think this move is great for Flyers who needed to get rid of Parent. The Flyers will look to sign Hamhuis now. Looking at the bigger picture, I think that this is the first of many trades the Flyers will make during the off season. With limited draft picks and highly priced free agents, the Flyers need to do focus on acquiring players via trades. With so much emphasis being put on getting players from trades it raises the question, will the Flyers deal Jeff Carter? With just a year left on his contract, Carter could be traded for a goalie or another defenseman. Another reason why the Flyers may look to deal Carter is there is no room for him at the center position. The Flyers already have Richards and Giroux, and during the post season Brierre proved that he deserves to play center. I think that the question is not whether or not Carter will be traded, it is more a matter of where and when. The Flyers can really get a lot of value for Carter, and I won't be surprised if Carter is not in a Flyers uniform next fall.
