Flyers Sign Cam York to Five-Year $25.75M Extension

News summary

The Philadelphia Flyers have signed restricted free agent defenseman Cam York to a five-year contract extension worth $25.75 million, carrying an annual cap hit of $5.15 million through the 2029-30 NHL season. York, 24, has spent his entire NHL career with the Flyers since being drafted 14th overall in 2019, totaling 77 points in 235 games and averaging nearly 21 minutes of ice time per game. Despite a slight dip in production last season with 17 points in 66 games, York is seen as a key young player and potential long-term value as the Flyers transition from rebuilding to playoff contention. The team has also made significant offseason moves, including acquiring forward Trevor Zegras, signing center Christian Dvorak and goaltender Dan Vladar, and hiring Rick Tocchet as head coach. Flyers General Manager Daniel Briere praised York's work ethic and leadership potential, while York expressed confidence in the team's direction. The contract extension allows the Flyers to focus on further roster improvements while managing salary cap constraints.
