SUNRISE, Fla. (CP) - Ed Belfour has signed a one-year contract with the Florida Panthers.
The 41-year-old goaltender became a free agent this summer when the Toronto Maple Leafs chose not to pick up an option on his contract.
Belfour has been recovering from back surgery in April and had previously been linked with the Detroit Red Wings.
In Florida, he'll likely split goaltending duties with Alex Auld.
Belfour's 457 career victories rank second in NHL history.
