Canadiens acquire Dominic Moore from Panthers

The Florida Panthers traded forward Dominic Moore to the Montreal Canadiens for a second-round pick in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft. Moore has 8 goals and 9 assists for 17 points in 48 games for Florida. He signed with the Panthers as a free agent just before the start of the season.

The Canadiens will be Moore's seventh NHL team, which marks the third year in a row. He was claimed off waivers from Wild by Maple Leafs in 2007-08, and was traded from Toronto to Buffalo at last season's trade deadline. Moore was originally drafted by the New York Rangers in the third round in 2000. Hope he can play well in the canadiens jersey.

Cammalleri is sidelined for 6 to 8 weeks

According to published reports, Cammalleri suffered an injury in his right knee in a loss to the Senators on Saturday. The Olympic break means the Canadiens will be without their star center for at least 14 games, including the next seven contests prior to the break. Cammalleri was injured on a check by Senators defenseman Anton Volchenkov midway at the third period. He was seen leaving Scotiabank Place and remained stiff as he walked.

"I'm hoping it's not too bad," Cammalleri told the Montreal Gazette after the game. In addition to Cammalleri, who leads the team with 26 goals and a plus-10 rating in his canadiens jersey, forward Andrei Kostitsyn, who suffered a knee injury on Dec. 30, can not come back until after the Olympic game.

Martin Brodeur ties another record

Roy, who played for Montreal and Colorado, appeared in 1,029 games in his 18-year career. Brodeur is in his 16th season, all with the team in his new jersey devils jersey.

It's the second time in two seasons that Brodeur has equaled Roy's records in a game against Montreal Canadiens. Brodeur tied Roy for career wins last March, getting No. 551 in the Bell Centre.

Sidney Crosby surprised hockey fans again on Oct.28
