Panthers ink Vatrano to 1-year deal

The Florida Panthers have signed forward Frank Vatrano to a one-year deal, the team announced Friday.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but TSN's Pierre LeBrun reports it's worth $925K.

"Frank brings scoring ability and depth to our forward group," said general manager Dale Tallon. "He was a solid addition to our forward group during our playoff push and we're excited for his continued development with the Panthers."

Vatrano, 24, appeared in 16 games with Florida last season, recording five goals and eight points after being acquired from the Boston Bruins for a third-round pick in February.
