Very interesting, especially for Philly

Excellent move by the Canes... Williams is a future 30 goal, 70 pt guy and they got him for an injury prone Markov.  Since Willliams is a RW... looks more like O'neill is on his way out too.

Yeah it is a good move by the Canes... They acquire a very young very skilled RW who (like habby said) is capable of around 70 points a season. Add him to young core of Vrbata , Vasicek , Svoboda , and its something to work with for Carolina...

Plus Markov is injury prone and threatened to go back to Russia last summer... He'll probably go back if their is a lockout , and who knows ... he might stay.

This sets up a Jeff O'Neil trade ... maybe he will be dealt within 48 hours...
