NHL Free Agency 2017: Micheal Haley expected to sign with the Florida Panthers

Micheal Haley's time with the Sharks has come to an end. Per Harvey Fialkov of the Sun Sentinel, the Florida Panthers are looking to sign the 31 year old forward. Haley will fill a gap in the roster left by Shawn Thornton, who retired at the end of the 2016-17 season. This signing comes after former Sharks assistant coach Bob Boughner was named head coach of the Panthers.
