Impact Stolarz had a 5-6-0 record, 3.73 GAA and .897 save percentage in 19 contests with Anaheim last season. He might get an opportunity to compete for the backup job in Florida, but it's also entirely possible that he'll open the campaign in the minors.

Secures one-year deal Ekman-Larsson agreed to terms on a one-year, $2.25 million contract with Florida on Saturday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact Ekman-Larsson will be making significantly less than the $8.25 million he was expected to earn before the Cancuks bought out his contract. If the veteran blueliner can earn a spot with one of the power-play units, he could get back over the 30-point mark for the first time since 2019-20 when he was with Arizona. For fantasy players, Ekman-Larsson figures to be a high-risk, high-reward option given the uncertainty of which version of him you will be getting.

Bound for Sunshine State Stenlund signed a one-year, $1 million deal with the Panthers on Saturday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Impact In 54 games with the Jets last season, Stenlund garnered six goals and three assists, including a pair of shorthanded tallies. While the 26-year-old Swede will likely see minutes with the penalty kill for Florida, he won't offer significant value for fantasy players given his limited offensive upside and lack of hits or blocks.

The 6-foot-5 blueliner posted six points in 81 games between the Blues and the Rangers last season, adding 151 hits, 106 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating.
JULY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
