The Florida Panthers have signed forward Noel Acciari to a three-year deal, the team announced Monday.
The contract carries a $1.67-million cap hit, TSN's Bob McKenzie reports.
"Noel is a hard-nosed, reliable, two-way forward who plays the game with an edge," Panthers GM Dale Tallon said. "He possesses great character, playoff experience, and adds a consistent physical presence to our lineup. We are thrilled to have agreed to terms with Noel and know that he makes our club deeper and harder to play against."
Acciari, 27, registered 14 points in 72 games with the Boston Bruins during the regular season while centering the fourth line. He added four points in 19 contests during the team's run to the Stanley Cup Final.
Known for his forechecking ability, Acciari racked up 221 hits last season.
