Carle is another offensive defenceman in our system, and another right handed shot.

Nice to see the Bulldogs picking it up now.
 
Carle is good, he has Brisebois skill set but is tougher and seems like he wouldn't make stupid rookie mistakes 12 years into his careeer.
 
I get the feeling Subban would make a better forward than dman, his speed,energy, quickness, attitude would make one mean forechecking energy guy.
 
Bulldogs lose 3-2

HAMILTON - Joe Jensen's tiebreaking goal in the third period led the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins to a 3-2 win over the Hamilton Bulldogs on Wednesday in American Hockey League action.

Nathan Smith and Chris Minard also scored for the Penguins. Greg Stewart and Cory Urquhart replied for the Bulldogs (7-8-0-3). Smith's fifth goal of the season gave the Bulldogs a lead 4:08 into the first period.

Minard restored the Penguins' one-goal lead at 2:24 of the second period when his slap shot snuck under the glove hand of Bulldogs goaltender Jaroslav Halak.

Hamilton responded at the 10:06 mark of the second when Urquhart scored his fifth goal of the campaign. Matt D'Agostini's initial shot was stopped by Wilkes-Barre's netminder Ty Conklin and Urquhart buried the rebound with a shot to the top left corner of the Penguins net.
