Flyers sign Dvorak to 5-year, $25.75M extension

The Philadelphia Flyers locked up center Christian Dvorak on a five-year extension carrying an average annual value of $5.15 million, the team announced Monday.

His new contract includes a full no-trade clause for the first two years, a limited no-trade clause in the third and fourth years, and no trade protection in the final year, according to Puck Pedia.

"We're very happy to have Christian be a part of the Philadelphia Flyers for the foreseeable future," general manager Daniel Briere said. "He has played a pivotal role in our team's success this season and proven to be a reliable, two-way center that can be trusted in all situations. More importantly, he plays a big role in our locker room and has fit in seamlessly to our group and what we are building."

Dvorak is on pace for a career year, having tallied 25 points over 39 games in 2025-26. He's centering Philadelphia's top line alongside wingers Trevor Zegras and Travis Konecny.

The Flyers signed Dvorak to a one-year, $5.4-million contract in free agency this past offseason. He previously played for the Arizona Coyotes and Montreal Canadiens.

The 29-year-old has averaged 16 goals and 39 points per 82 games during his 10-year NHL career.
