The Flyers remain optimistic about their chances to retain Matt Carle. According to Sam Carchidi of The Philadelphia Inquierer the deal is expected to be in the "$4.5 million per season neighborhood." Under their current commitments, that contract would put them just past the current cap, though it's expected to change under the new collective bargaining agreement. The 27-year-old Carle had four goals and 34 assists this past season.
