After signing Matvei Michkov yesterday and extending Garnet Hathaway’s stay for a few additional years, the Philadelphia Flyers signed center Anthony Richard to a two-year, two-way deal worth $1.55 million. The contract has a $775,000 AAV.
Richard, 27, scored 20 goals and added 35 assists for 55 points in 59 games with the AHL’s Providence Bruins. He was second on the team in goals, power play goals and tied for second in shorthanded goals so it’s clear he can play at even strength and on special teams. He also had a stint with the Bruins where he scored a goal and had two assists in nine games.
