No surprise here, but the article claims that Homer met with Danny last week, and informed him they were using the Amnesty option. Although this seemed inevitable from the day the new CBA was signed, it's unfortunate that one of the gutsiest players in the league, will exit the Orange and Black in this manner. I'll miss the signature sliding fist pumps! Best of luck Danny B!

Do you see anything here to change the original thesis* of: "The two are not the same player, despite achieving similar results. Both men help their team spend more time in the offensive zone. Both men help their team outscore the opposition. Both men look fantastic when playing next to Pronger/Weber. Both men are looking at a very large payday this summer. Both men are less than physical defensemen. Both men have a fair amount of turnovers. But Suter is better at suppressing shots while Carle is better at generating offense." Me neither. * found here: http://www.broadstreethockey.com/2012/3/2/2830998/philadelphia-flyers-matt-carle-ryan-suter-nhl-free-agency-2012
