TSN is reporting that the Flyers and center Jeff Carter have officially agreed to terms on a 3-year deal worth $5 million. We're also hearing that the salary cap increase is in the ballpark of $6.4 million, which we hope will give the Flyers enough room for a top-4 blueliner (if not top-1). Glad to have Carter back. Now if only the team will stop calling him Cartsy. Seriously, we understand that every hockey player must have a nickname, and nine times out of ten, it's just cutting a few syllables and adding -y (the baseball equivalent being First Initial–First syllable of last name), but can we please get more creative? How about Cartman or something?
