Easily the most awesome battle of training camp will be Radim Zohorna vs. Jeff Carter, right?

DK. as a torontonian, I can tell you that this kind of irreverent comment is common in the city and fan base. Remember that Dubas grey up there and cut his teeth in the province.
Anyone that puts Carter in the box eating nachos instead of on the ice is hero.
Hopefully Carter is picking out some new suits to wear in the healthy scratch press box.
Dk that's funny you mentioned zohorna. I wrote on another mb a few weeks ago that he is my dark horse to make the team.
Big fan of Zahorna. Hated when he was claimed off waivers. The Zahorna-Boyle-Blueger fourth line was criminally underrated.
I think what we'll probably see is Carter being scratched so often this season that he'll accept a trade before the deadline to any team just so he doesn't go out that way. I mean, at this point he's just as big a waste on the 4th line as he would be on the 1st. I think he'd much rather actually play for any team, than retire on the bench as a Penguin if given the option. If they can get a team who'll take on his prorated cap space for the rest of the season for a low pick or long shot prospect, then they could really use his salary to sign a player that could help them, even if it's a rental. Who knows what that may be by mid-season.
If this was going to be a thing it would have already been a thing. Sullivan isn't going to bench Carter, and Carter will continue to sink the bottom 6.
