The Flyers and Tyson Foerster were close on two seperate deals. One for three years and one for two years, with the latter one becoming the one they finalized.
A two year deal opens up the possibility for a long term extension next offseason. Foerster will be eligible for an extension now after July 1st 2026.
Flexibility was also a key part to the two year deal.
It allows the Flyers more flexibility to use cap space elsewhere, while also getting a definite read on Foerster over the next two seasons.
