He and Cote shared a table at the "Season Ticket-holders meet the Players" night (or whatever it's officially called) back in 2007-08. I went with my son. Carter and Cote were both quite friendly, but that was an event where it was expected he'd come into contact with fans. He was on "company time". All the players were pleasant that night except for Mike Richards, who looked like he had sucked a lemon prior to our arrival at his table, and Rory Fitzpatrick, who looked out of place.
EDIT: I agree that Carter seems less than fan-friendly, but I think Emery was the sourest of the bunch this past season. Early in the season, before he was injured, my wife (then my fiancee) got his autograph. You would think that, like Carter in my scenario above, he'd have put on his happy face for the fans.
