Florida Panthers Continue to Make Moves, Re-Sign Key Forward

The Florida Panthers are trying to beat the record for most transactions in a day as after they bought out Keith Yandle, re-signed defenseman Gustav Forsling, they have now turned around and signed forward Anthony Duclair to a three-year contract extension worth $9 million total.

It looks like Duclair found a home in Florida last season as the 25-year-old who has bounced around a little bit, landed on his feet with the Panthers. His 32 points in 42 games were impressive and so was his plus 27 rating which shattered a career high. Him and Sam Bennett appeared to hit it off and have great chemistry on the ice.

In 396 career games so far, Duclair has recorded 194 points and now sets up shop in the Sunshine State for another three seasons. Considering he's played for five teams in the past four years, we're sure he's glad to settle down somewhere.

Zito: "We look forward to seeing him continue to be a creative playmaker for us on the ice and a valuable member of our community. We are thrilled to have him as a part of the Panthers family for years to come."
