A "head up your butt" pick. HE HAS NO CHARACTER OR INTEGRITY. The Flyers will rue the day they did this and they will deserve it….EVERY BIT OF IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
True, and I'm not comparing player vs. coach. However, skills are attainable through hard work, but Character and Integrity are innate things you either have or don't have. A Leopard cannot change his spots.
The Flyers brand and system left with Ed Snider.
After all your rants and rave about what RT was doing, the inevitable happened. Maybe in the future you can restrain your hysteria.
Welcome home Rick now find out why your young star is ballin in Dubai..
Vancouver exit. Brock leaving , Quinn wants out , unstable mgnt leadership. Injured goalie Plus numerous offers
Tochett is dens ding but talks to players. He explains decisions and expectations. Quinn loved him Garland had a lot of compliments for him
I gotta believe e he was assured of acquisitions this off season
"We're rebuilding" but don't take it apart. "We need to change our culture" but once again bring back former players.
Tortorella was a 65 year-old child, so almost anything is better. Hard to be terribly optimistic looking at Tocchet’s coaching record, though. Missed the playoffs in seven of nine seasons and lost the locker room in Vancouver, IMO, and the team regressed. Gerard Gallant was a far, far better candidate — perhaps he passed on the chance to interview?
flyers will be a garbage team next year Lets see tocchet do anything with those players. Yikes
Great hire
