The Panthers claimed defenseman Casey Fotzgerald off waivers from the Buffalo Sabres today.
I like what Tkachuk has to say about his game. They need to get tougher so I hope it’s true!
Son of former Panther great Tom Fitzgerald!

The Panthers have done very well with claiming D men off waivers recently -- Forsling, Mahura -- so it's always intriguing when they make claims like this. https://t.co/U77U1iQMqL
Tkachuk on the #FlaPanthers claiming his second cousin and former U.S. teammate Casey Fitzgerald:

"Hearing the news is very exciting for myself and my family. ... He plays so intense. ... Hates to lose, very physical and guys love him in the room. We're excited to have him."
Go Panthers!
