Overview
- Dvorak’s extension begins in 2026–27 and runs through 2030–31 at a $5.15 million annual cap hit.
- The contract reportedly includes a full no-trade clause for the first two years, a limited clause in years three and four, and no protection in the final year, per The Athletic.
- The 29-year-old has nine goals and 25 points in 39 games after signing a one-year, $5.4 million deal last summer, earning top-line usage with Trevor Zegras and minutes in all situations.
- General manager Daniel Brière announced the agreement Monday night and praised Dvorak’s reliable two-way play and leadership presence.
- Analysts call the term a calculated gamble given aging curves and future cap planning in a thin center market, with the Flyers’ next major decision centered on Zegras’ upcoming RFA negotiations.
