We all remember that game against the Caps, December 5th, when Carcillo being Carcillo got 29 penalty minutes and a game misconduct. The Flyers went on to lose 8-2. Carcillo was looked at as nothing but a goon and some even thought that he shouldn't be in the line-up.
Before that incident Danny had 5 points (2 goals, 3 assits). Since then he's become a different person or maybe the person that Flyers GM Paul Holmgren sought after during the Trade Deadline last year. He has put up 16 points (10 goals, 6 assists) since.
His reputation has been the biggest oppstical in his way, recently he had been suspended 2 games for a incidental cross check. Although the questionable ruling, he kept his head and returned to score his 16th goal against Detroit on Sunday that undoubtly set the tone for the Flyers, who came out on top 4-3.
Carcillo seems to be very close to returning to his 2007-2008 form where he put up 24 points in 57 games and to be seen as a talented power-forward.
