Ryan Poehling is staying put in Anaheim after the forward signed a new four-year contract Ducks on Friday.

Poehling would have become an unrestricted free agent this summer. The Ducks did not disclose financial terms, but multiple media outlets reported that the contract is worth a total of $15 million.

Poehling, 27, signed his current two-year contract with Philadelphia but was traded to Anaheim last June in the deal that sent Trevor Zegras to the Flyers. Through 54 games in his first season with the Ducks, he has tallied 24 points (seven goals, 17 assists).

A first-round draft pick by Montreal in 2017, Poehling has played in 337 career games and amassed 119 points (50 goals, 69 assists) for the Canadiens (2018-20, 2021-22), Pittsburgh Penguins (2022-23), Flyers (2023-25) and Ducks.
