The Flyers formally introduced Rick Tocchet as the 25th head coach in franchise history on Friday morning. Here are five takeaways from the press conference.

The Flyers got their guy in Rick Tocchet. Whether it's the right fit remains to be seen. But for Keith Jones and Danny Briere, it needs to be the first in a series of right decisions.

The Flyers announced on Wednesday that they will not be retaining assistant coaches Rocky Thompson, Darryl Williams, and Angelo Ricci.

With the Flyers season completed, Friday was exit interview day. There were a few quotes that stood out regarding the future of several players on the roster.

One day prior to the four-year anniversary of Ron Hextall's firing as Flyers GM, chants of "Fire Fletcher" could be heard at Wells Fargo Center. Chuck Fletcher's time should be running out, but it's not the only change that needs to be made.

On Wednesday, you saw that the current regime is incapable of handling a rebuild. They insisted upon an aggressive retool for a fast fix, not the necessary rebuild needed. Now it’s time to start that rebuild anyway, but focus on the front office that has so clearly set the Flyers back.

The Flyers parted with head coach Alain Vigneault in December after he went 8-11-4 start to the season.

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

Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher held his end-of-season availability on Tuesday, first confirming that Mike Yeo would not be returning as head coach of the team. He also discussed the meaning of an "aggressive retool," how youth factors into the future, and some injury updates.

According to a report from ESPN and NHL Network’s Kevin Weekes, the Flyers will “move on” from Mike Yeo in a head coaching role.
