Fantasy Analysis
The 27-year-old defenseman has 12 goals (2G, 10A) in 80 career NHL games, and none so far this year. Brett Carson had been out since mid-December with a back injury. He won't help your fantasy team much, but he'll definitely help the Flames, who are riddled with injuries at the moment. (Updated 01/17/2012).
06/09/2011 16:49 Flames sign defenseman Carson to two-year deal
The Calgary Flames signed defenseman Brett Carson to a $1.15 million, two-year deal on Thursday after acquiring him late in the season off waivers.
Turning 26 years old this coming November, Carson signed on for two years with the Flames in June of 2011. He makes a good outlet pass, and put up 20 points in 38 AHL contests last season, but his fantasy prospects are limited until he can carve a full-time role on an NHL blue line. (Updated 8/16/11)
