Flyers re-sign Laughton to 2-year deal

The Philadelphia Flyers signed forward Scott Laughton to a two-year contract on Tuesday, the team announced.

The 23-year-old is coming off his fourth season with the Flyers since being drafted in the first round back in 2012. Laughton, however, suited up in just two games for the Flyers in 2016-17, and instead spent the year with the team's American Hockey League affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms.

Laughton - who was a restricted free agent - went pointless in his two games with the Flyers last season, but tallied 19 goals and 39 points in 60 games with the Phantoms.
