The Philadelphia Flyers have locked up one of their top players for a very long time, signing Travis Konecny to a massive $70 million extension.

The contracted extension that the Flyers have just given Konecny is reportedly an eight-year deal with an AAV of $8.75 million. There have been rumblings over the last several weeks that something big was coming between Konecny and the Flyers, and this deal is definitely monstrous.

Flyers have signed Travis Konecny to an 8-year, $70M extension ($8.75M AAV)

"Travis Konecny is an integral part of the fabric of our team and we are thrilled to have him under contract for the long-term," said Brière. "Travis has grown into a significant leader on our team and he truly embodies what it means to be a Flyer. His work-ethic, combined with his tenacity and talent makes him a central figure for what we are building towards, and his determination for our future success speaks volumes about his commitment to our team and city."

«I couldn't be happier to sign again with the Flyers,» said Konecny. «There's such a bright and exciting future with this team and I can't wait to be a part of it for the next nine years and see what we will accomplish. I can't thank all my teammates and staff members enough because this opportunity wouldn't be possible without each and every one of them along the way. I can't wait to get back to Philly in front of the best fans in the world and I look forward to another great season!

Konecny is 27 years old, and had a fantastic season for the Flyers last year. He put up 33 goals and 35 assists in 76 games. That was good enough to hold the team lead in goals and points. He also had six short-handed goals and five game winning goals. His six short-handed goals led the entire league in that category. He also ranked second in the NHL in shorthanded points with seven.

It's safe to say, the Flyers got him at a great price.
