Calder to Detroit, Williams to Chicago in three-way deal

Hockey Betting Lines

02/27/2007 - Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Philadelphia Flyers dealt struggling Kyle Calder in a three-way deal that saw the left winger wind up in Detroit and center Jason Williams land in Chicago on Monday.

The Blackhawks sent defenseman Lasse Kukkonen and a third-round pick in 2007 to Philadelphia, then Chicago dealt Calder to Detroit for Jason Williams.

The deal came down on the day before the NHL's trading deadline.

Calder had scored a career-high 26 goals for Chicago in the 2005-06 season, but did not score a goal in his first 28 games with Philadelphia and has totaled nine goals and 12 assists in 59 contests.

In his seventh season, Calder has notched 94 goals with 137 assists in 418 games.

"With Kyle's pending unrestricted free agent status coming up, we did make an attempt to sign him, but it didn't look like we were going to get it done before the trade deadline tomorrow," said Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren. "We just felt that we couldn't afford to take a chance and get nothing in return for an asset like Kyle. We did what we needed to do."

Williams, 26, had a breakout season last year with the Red Wings as he posted career-highs in goals (21) and assists (37) in 80 games played. He has played in 58 games this season and has 11 goals and 15 assists.

"I'm definitely excited about coming to Chicago," said Williams. "Any time you can be a part of an original six team it's special. Chicago is making strides in the right direction. I'm looking forward to coming to Chicago and in being a major factor on the team. I'm happy to be going to a team that wants me and I'm looking forward to helping the Blackhawks."

Over six years, all in Detroit, he has 49 goals and 67 assists in 233 games.

"We've been trying to acquire Jason Williams since last summer," said Blackhawks general manager Dale Tallon. "He is a quality individual who can add to our team offensively and can also play the point on the power play. We feel with his speed and skill he is another piece of the puzzle as we continue to move forward in making our team better."

Kukkonen, 25, is appearing in his second season in the NHL and has five goals and 10 assists in 64 games for his career.

LINCOLN, Neb. -- Nebraska running back Marlon Lucky was hospitalized Monday for undisclosed reasons after Lincoln police responded to a call at his residence.

The Nebraska athletic department said in a release Monday that Lucky was admitted Sunday night.

A nursing supervisor at the hospital said all questions about Lucky were being referred to the athletic department. The athletic department said there would be no further comment from the department or Lucky's family.

A Lincoln Police spokesman said officers responded to a call at Lucky's residence 11:30 p.m. Sunday. The spokesman said he didn't know Lucky's condition at the time he was taken to the hospital.

Lucky, from North Hollywood, Calif., started six games last season as a sophomore and was the team's second-leading rusher, with 728 yards and six touchdowns. He also caught 32 passes for 383 yards. He averaged 19.1 yards on eight kickoff returns.
