Evgenii Dadonov leaves Panthers, signs with Ottawa Senators

One of the Panthers’ leading scorers over the past three seasons is gone as forward Evgenii Dadonov signed a three-year deal with the Ottawa Senators.

Dadonov, who was second on the team with 25 goals last season, signed for an average of $5 million with the Sens after making $4 million with the Panthers.

With Dadonov off the market, the Panthers have two of their top remaining free agents still out there in Mike Hoffman and Erik Haula.
