Former Maverick Ryan Carter appears to have made the Anaheim Ducks' opening day roster. The Stanley Cup champions announced their final cuts on Monday, sending four players to the minors.
Anaheim opens the season with games Saturday and Sunday against the Los Angeles Kings in London. Sunday's game will be aired nationally on the Vs. network at 11 a.m.
Carter, you'll recall, got his name on the Stanley Cup last summer after getting called up during the playoffs and playing in one game of the Finals. As part of his "day with the Cup," Carter brought the trophy to Mankato.
Other ex-Mavericks looking to make NHL rosters include David Backes and Steve Wagner (St. Louis Blues), Grant Stevenson (Calgary Flames) and Tim Jackman (New York Islanders). The Washington Capitals sent Travis Morin to its American Hockey League affiliate in Hershey, Pa., and the Vancouver Canucks released Chad Brownlee last week. More on Brownlee later.
