Florida Panthers forward Jamie McGinn will be out indefinitely after undergoing back surgery, the team announced Friday.

McGinn tallied 13 goals and 29 points in 76 games for the Panthers last season. The left winger was set to play a bottom-six role with the club for the 2018-19 campaign.

McGinn was traded from the Arizona Coyotes to Florida last September in exchange for defenseman Jason Demers.

He has one year left on his contract, which carries a $3.3-million cap hit.
