Free agent Anthony Duclair has found a new home, as he agreed to a one-year, $1.7 million deal with the Florida Panthers.
Duclair, 25, became an unrestricted free agent in October after the Ottawa Senators declined giving him a qualifying offer.
«Anthony is a dynamic and highly skilled player who is capable of being a dependable offensive contributor for our team,» said Panthers general manager Bill Zito. «He possesses tremendous speed and goal scoring ability and earned an opportunity to be named an NHL All-Star last season. We're excited to welcome Anthony and look forward to what he can add to our team.»
Last season was a career year for Duclair, who scored a career high 23 goals and had 40 points despite playing in just 66 games. In 353 career games split between the New York Rangers, Arizona Coyotes, Chicago Blackhawks, Columbus Blue Jackets and the Senators, he has 79 goals and 162 points.
