The Philadelphia Flyers inked the forward to a two-year deal worth an average annual value of $1.1 million on Thursday.

Grebenkin, 23, was traded to Philadelphia by the Toronto Maple Leafs in March 2025 as part of the Scott Laughton deal.

The former fifth-round pick played just seven games with Toronto in his rookie campaign but followed that up with his first full NHL season in 2025-26, making 55 appearances with four goals and 10 assists.

Before making his way to North America, Grebenkin played parts of three seasons (2021-24) in the KHL, registering 67 points (28 goals, 39 assists) in 120 games. He earned the Alexei Cherepanov Award as the league’s top rookie in 2023.
