News: The Miami Herald reports that Panthers RW Evgeni Dadonov and D Steve MacIntyre have been called up from the AHL.

News:The Sports Xchange reports prospect Evgeni Dadonov has officially left Russia and signed an entry level contract with the Panthers. He's expected to start the season with Rochester of the AHL.
Analysis: Dadonov, a 2007 third-round pick, has spent the last three seasons playing in Russia. He had 11 goals and 15 points in 40 games last season for Chelyabinsk Traktor. Dadonov is a small forward at 5-10, 178 pounds, but he has some developing offensive skills. He is not afraid to play in traffic and fight for the loose puck. He will get some time to work in the minors, so Dadonov is nothing more than a long-term Fantasy keeper.
