The Philadelphia Flyers agree to a four-year contract extension with forward Trevor Zegras, avoiding an upcoming arbitration hearing. Multiple reports say the deal is worth $36.5 million in total, with an average annual value of $9.125 million. The signing happens about a week before Zegras was scheduled to reach arbitration.
Zegras is 25 and is described as a restricted free agent at the time of the agreement. In his first season with Philadelphia, he produces strong offensive numbers, posting career highs with 26 goals and 67 points over 81 games, with the points total noted as second-most on the team. Team and league context in the reports indicates the Flyers still have remaining restricted free agents after the contract is completed.
While the outlets use slightly different phrasing, they all state the same core terms: a four-year deal, $36.5 million total value (including the $9.125 million annual figure), and the timing relative to arbitration. The Flyers’ announcement and the contract’s impact on the roster are the focus across coverage.
