Keane Traded To Canes
The Rangers announced today, their first move ahead of next Monday’s trade deadline, moving propsect defenseman Joey Keane to the Carolina Hurricanes in exchange for 22 year old forward Julien Gauthier.
It was just last week that the Keane got his first call-up to the Rangers, following an injury to Tony DeAngelo, and illness to Marc Staal. As it turned out Staal was able to play, and thus the rookie defenseman missed out on the opportunity to make his NHL debut.
