Nolan Foote signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Flyers. The deal carries an AAV/cap hit of $850,000 at the NHL level and $300,000 in the AHL. It was first reported on July 3, 2026 (by PuckPedia and confirmed by me), and the Flyers officially announced it today, August 19, 2026.
Foote, a 25-year-old left-shot winger (6’3, 201 lbs, born November 29, 2000), was a first-round pick (27th overall) by the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2019. He previously played for the New Jersey Devils organization and spent the 2025-26 season with the Florida Panthers (One goal in 12 NHL games) and their AHL affiliate, the Charlotte Checkers (14 goals, 18 assists, 32 points in 54 games). Foote is also the brother of Cal Foote, who was involved in the most recent Hockey Canada Case.
His career NHL totals stand at 10 points (Seven goals, Three assists) in 42 games played. He has stronger AHL production (161 points in 245 games) and is the son of former NHL defenseman Adam Foote (and brother of Cal Foote). He is expected to compete for a roster spot in Training Camp, but is most likely to begin the 2026-27 season with the Flyers’ AHL affiliate, the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, as organizational depth/call-up depth.
