Flynn agreed to a two-year, $1.9 million contract extension with the Canadiens on Tuesday, NHL.com reports.

Analysis:

"We're very pleased to have reached an agreement with Brian," general manager Marc Bergevin said Tuesday. "A fast, versatile and reliable player, Brian bought into the team's philosophy from the very first day. He brings the right attitude to the dressing room day in and day out, and has a professional approach to the game. We are proud to have him among our group of forwards." Flynn came over from the Sabres at the trade deadline and finished the season with five goals and 12 assists for 17 points in 63 combined games. The 26-year-old typically saw time on the Habs' fourth line last season, a role he seems destined to fill again in 2015-16.
