The Philadelphia Flyers signed forward Ryan Poehling to a one-year contract worth $1.4 million, the team announced Saturday.
The Pittsburgh Penguins didn't tender a qualifying offer to Poehling on Friday, making him an unrestricted free agent. The 24-year-old tallied seven goals and 14 points in 53 games last season.
The Montreal Canadiens drafted Poehling 25th overall in 2017. He burst onto the scene in 2019, scoring a hat trick and a shootout goal against the Toronto Maple Leafs in his NHL debut.
Pittsburgh acquired Poehling last summer as part of the package in the Jeff Petry trade.
Poehling has 20 goals and 36 points in 136 career NHL games.
