Tippett, who was moved to injured reserve this week with a lower-body injury, is in the midst of what could be the best season of his young career. The 24-year-old winger is on pace to finish with his first 30-goal season and is projected to finish with 52 points.
Re-signing Tippett to an eight-year deal worth $6.2 million annually gives the Flyers their sixth player who has more than three years remaining on their current contract. Tippett joins a group that also includes Sean Couturier, Ryan Ellis, Joel Farabee, Rasmus Ristolainen and Travis Sanheim.
