The Philadelphia Flyers are reportedly keeping forward Sam Gagner and will not buy out the year that remains on his contract.

Gagner told Tim Panaccio of Comcast Sportsnet about the news on Tuesday.

The 25-year-old was traded to the Flyers by the Arizona Coyotes on Saturday. Gagner is due to be paid $5 million this season with a cap hit of $4.8 million.

Gagner scored 15 goals and 26 assists for the Coyotes last season.
