It’s been a busy few days for the Philadelphia Flyers and the pace isn’t slowing anytime soon. According to an official press release, the team have signed defenseman Sam Morin to a one-year contract extension with a $750,000 AAV.
After being drafted by the Flyers with the 11th overall pick in 2013, the 6’6, 202 lbs, defenseman has gone on to gradually carve a niche on the roster. He’s appeared in 29 total games for the Flyers over the past five seasons, but that exposure could’ve been so much higher had it not been for a pair of season-ending knee injuries.
