The Florida Panthers made its final round of personnel moves on Monday to get under this year’s $82.5 million salary cap and set its initial roster for the 2022-23 NHL season.
Goaltender Alex Lyon; defensemen Michael Del Zotto and Lucas Carlsson; and forwards Chris Tierney, Gerry Mayhew and Aleksi Heponiemi all cleared waivers at 2 p.m. and were loaned to the Charlotte Checkers of the American Hockey League.
The Panthers claimed 24-year-old defenseman Josh Mahura from the Anaheim Ducks. Mahura appeared in 38 games with the Ducks during the 2021-22 season and produced three goals and four assists.
