MATSUMOTO TO CAROLINA

The Carolina Hurricanes acquired center Jonathan Matsumoto from the Philadelphia Flyers for a seventh-round draft pick in 2010.

What does it give the Carolina Hurricanes
The Hurricanes add a little more center depth with the addition of Matsumoto, who will likely spend 2010-11 in the AHL.

What does it give the Philadelphia Flyers
The Flyers have a glut of centers, so they're giving Matsumoto a chance for advancement in another organization. Philly took Swedish rearguard Ricard Blidstrand with the pick.
