Florida Panthers GM Bill Zito has brought in another player that he is very familiar with from his days in Columbus, inking unrestricted free agent Zac Dalpe to a two-year, two-way contract.
Dalpe’s deal is worth $750K at the NHL level. The AHL level money is $400K in the first year and $350K.
The 31-year-old appeared in 12 games with the Blue Jackets last season and produced two goals and an assist. Dalpe also suited up in five games for the AHL’s Cleveland Monsters and lit the lamp three times and added an assist.
A second round pick of the Carolina Hurricanes in the 2008, Dalpe has played in a total of 153 career NHL games.
