dave-O Posted January 30, 2006 Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 TSN.ca reports:The Carolina Hurricanes have acquired Doug Weight from the St. Louis Blues but it is just one part of a much larger trade involving other players and draft picks that won't be made official until after the Hurricanes and Blues complete the official trade conference call with the NHL. Weight, though, has waived his no trade clause and will be joining the Hurricanes, who outbid Nashville, Calgary and Ottawa, amongst other teams, for his services.

dave-O Posted January 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2006 Really good move by Carolina, they have an incredible top 6 forwards - Staal, Justin Williams (underrated, having a breakout season), Stillman, Cole, Brind'Amour and now Weight.
