The Florida Panthers have re-signed defenseman MacKenzie Weegar to a one-year contract, the team announced Wednesday. The deal is worth $900,000, according to Cap Friendly.
The 24-year-old appeared in 60 games in his first full NHL season, recording eight points and finishing second in hits among Panthers defensemen.
"We are pleased to have agreed to terms with MacKenzie," said general manager Dale Tallon. "He is a versatile, young two-way defender who made big strides in his development during his rookie season."
The 6-feet tall, 212-pound blue-liner was selected by Florida in the seventh round of the 2013 NHL Draft.
