Philadelphia Flyers sign undrafted center Jackson Cates(20) to a two-year entry level contract leaving a year at University Of Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs on the table.
The 6′ 190 lbs. forward had his highest point totals as a junior, scoring all new highs 11 goals, 16 assists for 27 points with a +8 rating.
He was part of the 2nd straight NCAA Division 1 Championship as a rookie in 2018/2019.
That came off an outstanding 2nd frame with Waterloo Blackhawks, where he struck for 33 goals and 30 assists and was named USHL Forward Of The Year.
The Minnesota native will start immediately but we’ll see if he reports to affiliate Lehigh Valley Phantoms to play games or is brought up as a taxi squad member for the big club.
