Carl Grundstrom Re-Signs with Flyers for 2026-27 Season

In a move that solidifies their roster for the upcoming season, the Philadelphia Flyers have announced the re-signing of former San Jose Sharks forward Carl Grundstrom. The 28-year-old winger has inked a one-year contract extension worth $1 million, as reported by insider Darren Dreger. This decision comes just a day before Grundstrom was set to become a free agent, ensuring that he remains part of the Flyers’ plans moving forward.

Grundstrom joined the Flyers after a brief stint with the Sharks, and his performance during the 2025-26 season showcased his potential. He appeared in 47 games for Philadelphia, where he netted nine goals and accumulated a total of 13 points. Additionally, his time in the American Hockey League was productive; he scored six goals and tallied 15 points in just 19 games with the Lehigh Valley Phantoms.

As the Flyers aim to establish themselves as contenders in the highly competitive Metropolitan Division, Grundstrom’s depth and experience will be crucial. His ability to contribute offensively will be an asset as the team seeks to make a deeper playoff push in the upcoming season.
