Panthers lose Chris Driedger to Kraken in expansion draft
Photo by Alika Jenner/Getty Images As expected, the Seattle Kraken selected and signed Florida Panthers pending unrestricted free agent goaltender Chris Driedger in the 2021 NHL Expansion Draft.
It doesn’t appear that the Panthers made a side deal with Seattle, but we won’t know for sure until this afternoon.
In his final season with the Panthers, the 27-year-old Driedger posted a 14-6-3 record, a sparkling 2.07 GAA, a .927 save percentage and three shutouts.
