One of the Florida Panthers top homegrown talents is sticking around for at least another year.

On Thursday, the Panthers announced a one-year deal with forward Mackie Samoskevich.

The terms of the deal, which includes a $775,000 salary, was first reported by PuckPedia.

He had previously been a restricted free agent and was given a qualifying offer by Florida ahead of the July 1 deadline.

“Mackie is a talented young forward who demonstrated skill and maturity well above his age in his first full NHL season,” Panthers General Manager Bill Zito said in a statement released by the team. “He showcased his ability to slot into any hole in our lineup and find success this past season, which is a testament to both his play and character. We look forward to seeing him compete in our organization for years to come.”

Samoskevich was selected in the first round, 24th overall, at the 2021 NHL Draft.

He played in 72 games last season, his first full year in the NHL, and accumulated 15 goals and 31 points.

The young native of Newton, Connecticut should get a good look in Florida’s top six next season, whether it be on a line with Sasha Barkov and Sam Reinhart or perhaps the Sam Bennett line with Matthew Tkachuk.

That’s all assuming Panthers Head Coach Paul Maurice keeps his line-pairs (Barkov-Reinhart, Bennett-Tkachuk, Lundell-Luostarinen) together for a third straight season.
