Florida Panthers General Manager Dale Tallon announced today that the club has agreed to terms with LW Andrew Peters on a one-year, two-way contract.
 
Peters, 30, has appeared in 229 NHL games with Buffalo (2003-09) and New Jersey (09-10), registering seven points (4-3-7) with 650 PIM. The 6-foot-4, 240-pound winger paced New Jersey with 93 PIM last season. Peters recorded a career high 151 PIM with the Sabres during the 2003-04 campaign and led the American Hockey League with 388 PIM during the 2001-02 season.
 
"With the addition of Andrew, we immediately add a physical presence to our line-up," said Tallon. "He brings an aggressive style of play and a dimension that our team needed to address this offseason. We look forward to his contributions to our club."
 
The St. Catherines, Ontario native was drafted by Buffalo in the second round, No. 34 overall in the 1998 NHL Entry Draft.
