Juolevi signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Ducks on Wednesday.
Juolevi played in 18 games between the Panthers and the Red Wings last season, but he didn't record a point. The 24-year-old defenseman added 15 hits, 18 shots on goal and 10 blocked shots in limited minutes. With the Ducks still in a rebuild, the fifth overall pick from 2016 should get the chance to compete for regular playing time on the third pairing, but he could also spend time at AHL San Diego.
