The Philadelphia Flyers have signed free-agent defenseman Christian Folin to a one-year deal, the club announced Thursday.

The 6-foot-3, 204-pound Swede led the Los Angeles Kings in average hits per game last season and averaged 15:35 of ice time.

In 183 NHL games, the right-handed blue-liner posted 36 points and owns a career plus-minus of plus-16. Folin signed with Minnesota as a free agent out of college, and spent part of four seasons with the Wild before joining the Kings in 2017.
