Does the entry of Barry Trotz into the coaching free agent market change things for the Flyers? There are cases for both answers.

In the immediate, it was a move that had to happen. Something had to be done, and a coaching change is certainly an easier way than most to make a change. It’s far from the only change that needs to be made though.

Which Flyers head coach has won the most games in team history?

Flyers have met Montreal six times in Stanley Cup playoffs, each team has won a series three times and former Flyers Head Coach Mike Keenan knows about the Habs

Flyers head coach Alain Vigneault was named as one of the three finalists for the Jack Adams Award on Wednesday. The other finalists are Columbus head coach John Tortorella and Boston head coach Bruce Cassidy.

The reports started to surface as the team was in the air on the way back from Vancouver after a five-game road trip. Now the news is official. Dave Hakstol is no longer the Flyers head coach.

It was a question five years ago and it remains one now. The Flyers need a fresh perspective. A look in the mirror should show that the dismissal of Ron Hextall isn’t the only change that needs to happen.

There are times now where it seems Flyers head coach Dave Hakstol has given up on trying to find the positive spin on games, sounding more like a coach defeated than a coach with an overabundance of positivity. Maybe that’s because there is nowhere to hide anymore. Is it time for a change?
