08:17 AM ET 08.06 | Philadelphia Flyers coach Peter Laviolette didn't get any of the NHL's coveted free agents over the offseason, but he did get a new contract from GM Paul Holmgren. It was announced Wednesday that Laviolette signed a multiyear extension to remain with the team, though terms of the deal were not disclosed. ... "I feel good about the players that we have under contract and moving forward," said Laviolette. In just two-plus seasons, Laviolette is already seventh in franchise history with 221 games coached. Assuming a full season is played, he will move into third place in January behind only Fred Shero and Mike Keenan. "I was really excited to come to a market like Philadelphia," Laviolette said, "and an organization like this with the history, the ownership, and working for Paul."
