Gudas Returns to Panthers Defense | Florida Panthers News

Jul 1, 2026 · 1 min

The Florida Panthers are re-signing defenseman Radko Gudas to a six-year deal, bringing back the physical, veteran leader who helped them reach the Stanley Cup Final in 2023. After three seasons with the Ducks — where he led all defensemen in hits — Gudas returns to South Florida with a resume that includes Olympic and World Championship gold, a Calder Cup, and a top-three hit total in franchise history. This move signals the Panthers’ confidence in his defensive grit and leadership as they aim to build a championship-caliber blue line.
