Petrovic Returns to Panthers | Florida Panthers News

Jul 1, 2026 · 1 min

The Florida Panthers are bringing back defenseman Alexander Petrovic, a familiar face drafted in 2010 and a key contributor from 2013–2019. Now 34, he signed a two-year deal after a solid 2023-24 season with Dallas, posting 12 points and leading the team in hits. GM Bill Zito praised him as a shutdown defenseman who adds size and grit, especially after also reacquiring Markstrom and Gudas. Petrovic’s journey—from Panthers to Oilers to Stars, with AHL stints—shows resilience. With him back, the Panthers are clearly building depth as they gear up for the next campaign.
