Carter in Philly? Maybe, though Giroux scored more (I can’t remember if he was a wing or C then). But he was never a 1C after that trade - crapped out in Columbus (on purpose I believe) and slotted behind Kopitar in LA.

ROR and Carter were castoffs that went on to win Stanley Cups as their respective team's top line Cs.
