General Manager Danny Briere continues to reshape his lineup, making some player subtractions and adding new ones. Despite these changes, certain current Flyers, like Morgan Frost, are expected to remain with the team for an extended period.

Morgan Frost, a 24-year-old center, was drafted in the first round (27th overall) of the 2017 entry draft. Standing at 5 feet 11 inches and weighing 170 pounds, he has played 81 games with the Flyers, scoring nineteen goals and providing 27 assists, accumulating 46 points but maintaining a -12 rating.
According to a tweet by Dylan Robillard of brotherlypuck.com, it appears that the Flyers and Frost have not yet reached an agreement on a new contract and are currently far apart in their negotiations.

Once the contract is finalized it is expected that head coach John Tortorella will upgrade Frost higher in his lineup. Given the Flyers' status as a rebuilding franchise, the young center is likely to receive significant playing time, which will allow him to further develop his skills and potentially become a crucial asset to the team.
Frost recently concluded a three-year contract worth $2,775,000, with a cap hit of $863,333. Given his performance this year and the anticipated increase in playing time, it is reasonable to expect that Frost will receive a substantial pay raise, possibly between two and $2.5 million per season.
A three-year deal at this rate would likely be satisfactory for both parties involved.
