Why would anyone want to trade one of the absolute best shutdown dmen when he’s cost controlled?
Dom L from the Athletics model has him valued at 10.5M.
Pierre Luc Dubois said he was the hardest player to play against in the league because he’s so rangy and immediately shuts everything down
Like how does that skill set not have a place on this roster?

I have very mixed feelings about Carlo. On the one hand, I often find him a touch slow, mistake-prone and quite ordinary. On the other, put him with a partner with offensive ability and flair, he does quite well, contributing on both ends. His partner is the key to him. I wish he played better with HL. However, the pairing with Lohrei has a lot of potential.

I admit, I have not been a big supporter of Carlo's injury induced decline over the last 3-4 years. But if, "THIS" version of Carlo stays "HEALTHY", then he's back to meeting and maybe surpassing my expectation of him from his 2nd year.
He is really making a difference, especially in the absence of Forbort on the PK.
Sometimes its beneficial to be wrong!!
Cop to same on all fronts.
Please stay healthy, Brandon.
I would keep them together. Mason has a lot to learn from fellow big D Carlo.
They can help one another, and be an effective pair. It does not work with Lindholm. Very different dynamic.

Agreed. Though HL jumps into the offense very capably, he thinks clearing and d first, as does Carlo, and they don't work together.

I thought he was very solid last night.
Sometimes when he has the puck on his stick it looks like it's his first time, but last night he looked very sharp.

I like him with the right partner, and like and respect that he is a Born-again Christian, but if they had a good replacement and/or a good offer came along, he should go.
What a play last night with a stick save in the crease, then a backhand to the puck out of harms way.

I don’t remember who said it but about 5-6 years ago the comment Carlo will be an elite shutdown defender at 27 if not sooner
It’s happening
I for one go Lohrei- McAvoy
Those 2 will be wild to watch
Lindholm - Carlo second pair
Grzelcyk- Shatty
forbort extra
Outstanding group that are all a bit different

This threads an interesting read:
Player Discussion - Carlo vs Zboril
I like that comparison. We have a real gem on our hands. He was going be a better pro what I seen at the World Juniors, he was a man among boys. I don't think he has the offensive upside of Paryako. But he is still looking to be a real good player on the back end for the Bruins. Yeah I...

Born again? Wasn’t he always religious? Most people don’t assume I am devoutly religious until I take my shirt off and they see all my biblical tattoos.
Carlo is having a fabulous season. Skating looks great Chara like range pucks sticking to his stick. Awesome player especially when you have other equal or better D men.

I've been a Carlo detractor in the past but now I'm a faithful believer 
... he's really bringing it this year....as with many before I think we are seeing him grow into a man right before our eyes and it looks good on him...take no BS attitude which is a Bruins keeper trait

After 1 month, he's my pick for the 7th Player Award. He's been excellent.
