The team has signed forward Michael Raffl to a two year contract extension through the 2020-21 season worth $1.6million a season. "We're happy to have Michael for the next two years," Fletcher said.

His versatility, experience and work ethic will be valuable assets to our team going forward."
The forward feels the same and is excited to stay in Philly. "I'm very happy," Raffl said. "We've been working on this for a little bit now. I really like it here. This is the place I want to be and this has been my home, so I'm excited about the next two years.
