The Florida Panthers announced today that they have acquired defenseman Mathieu Roy from the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for the rights to center Matt Rust. In 31 games with the Blue Jackets this season, Roy has 10 assists and 17 penalty minutes. Rust has yet to play in an NHL game. This is a relatively minor deal on Trade Deadline Day. Roy brings the Panthers lots of toughness and grit to their blueline, while Rust gives the Blue Jackets another talented young forward to help build around.
