The Philadelphia Flyers have re-signed Justin Braun to a two-year contract carrying an average annual value of $1.8 million, the team announced Monday.
Braun recently completed his first season with the Flyers after the team acquired him from the San Jose Sharks last summer. He amassed three goals and 16 assists in 62 games.
The 33-year-old averaged 17:16 minutes of ice time and finished tied for second on the team with 84 blocked shots.
The Flyers' blue line took a hit on Monday after defenseman Matt Niskanen reportedly informed the team of his plans to retire. With the absence of Niskanen, Philadelphia now has five defensemen signed for the 2020-21 season.
