Florida Panthers Executive Vice President and General Manager Dale Tallon announced today that the club has agreed to terms with D Alex Petrovic on a two-year contract.
“We are very pleased to have re-signed Alex,” said Tallon. “Alex is a strong, physical defenseman who possesses great size and strength. He took great strides last season, logging valuable minutes for the Panthers. He was one of the Rampage’s top players and was named an American Hockey League All-Star. He is another building block for our team’s future.”
