Flyers' Noah Cates: Inks two-year contract

Cates signed a two-year, $5.25 million contract with Philadelphia on Monday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

Cates and the Flyers were able to come to terms on a new agreement prior to salary arbitration, so a hearing won't be necessary. The 24-year-old forward produced 13 goals, 38 points, 107 shots on net and 86 hits over 82 games during his rookie campaign in 2022-23.
