Kris Versteeg Retires

     Former Florida Panthers right wing Kris Versteeg announced his retirement on Tuesday after an 11-year NHL career. He won two Stanley Cup titles with the Chicago Blackhawks in 2010 and 2015.
     Versteeg was acquired by the Florida Panthers from the Philadelphia Flyers on July 1, 2011. He helped the Panthers franchise win their first division title in 2011-12 as they captured the Southeast Division. They fell to the New Jersey Devils in seven games during the first round of the Stanley Cup playoffs.
     He had his best National Hockey League campaign in 2011-12 with a career-high 23 goals and 54 points that season. Versteeg was traded to the Blackhawks in November 2013.
