A big offseason trade to the Columbus Blue Jackets will mean a fresh start for Carter in his seventh NHL season. He scored at least 33 goals each of the past three seasons (maxing out at 46) and is always among the league leaders in shots on goal. In other words, the guy is a goaltender's nightmare. Perhaps the biggest factor to Carter's success as a Blue Jacket will be Rick Nash's adaptability. Carter does not have playmaking skills equal to his shooting and Nash has always shouldered the load as the man responsible for putting the puck in the net. If Nash can translate his on-ice vision to that of a playmaker in addition to pure scorer, Carter could even exceed expectations.","seasonId":2012,"date":"Fri Sep 9"},"playerRater30DAY":0.3,"playerRater15DAY":-3.6,"positionRank":73}
