The Brooklin Redmen traded the playing rights for Shawn Williams to the Brampton Excelsiors for two 1st round picks in 2010, a 1st round pick in 2011, a 1st round pick in 2012 and future considerations.

Redmen General Manager Wayne Colley said that this was an extremely difficult decision to make given the leadership and professionalism shown by Williams over the years. Shawn was an ambassador for the Redmen on and off the floor.

On behalf of the entire Redmen organization we wish Shawn and his family all the best in their future lacrosse and personal pursuits.

Funny you say that. I was talking to a Laker fan last Sunday during the St.Regis game. We pondered the thought of whether JR or Scotty would be back this year in time and in shape to play.
We both agreed if not the one player that would make a instant impact and better the Laker's chances would be Shawn Williams.

Scott told me a couple of days ago that his rehab is coming along very well and he expects to be back playing in 3-4 weeks. Junior could be before that.
The one thing I wonder about adding a player like Williams to a team that is already so strong offensively is how all those star players will be able to share the ball. Not that they're selfish players, it's just they're all used to having a lot of the offense run through them, and they can't all play the role they're used to with such a stacked club. The Brampton guys are all pretty used to it by now, but Williams was pretty much the whole show in Brooklin, and even in Rochester he and Shawnie were the only guys scoring a lot this year, and he was the number one option. I wonder how effective he'll be as part of a team approach to offense rather than The Man. I'm not saying he won't be good, or that he won't help them, I'm just wondering how comfortable a fit it will be for everyone and how much he'll actually improve them.

Hey Flash,

Same could be said when JR finally get here.....

Shawn Williams would score his first in an Excelsior uniform on the ensuing power-play to end the night with 1 goal and 4 assists. Brampton would add two more in the final minutes to secure the 13-2 win.

Williams WILL improve Brampton alot!!

The Playoffs are going to be awesome!!!
