Hextall named Assistant GM

Flyers name Ron Hextall Assistant General Manager and Director of Hockey Operations - Philadelphia Flyers - News

I think this means that Holmgren is on a short lease. If the Flyers struggle early on I bet we see a 2006-esque exit a la Hitchcock/Clarke

very intersting.. i gotta agree w/ you 4706

 

[Hextall]

All I can say is its about time.

Not sure if Lavi would be gone... but its an interesting move.

Love the move. Although, Holmgren did a pretty good job this offseason getting Emery cheap and shedding Briere and Bryz. I like our team going into next year. Bounce back year.

I'd put Hextall between the pipes over that sob.

Love this move, love Hextall.
Although I think Homer is giving Hexy a little too much of the credit for LA's success.

Normally don't like the nepotism that NHL teams seem enamoured with, but Hextall seems to have proven himself at this level.

cant argue with the results the kings have had lately with their drafts.. hextall had a big part in that i would think.. hopefully he can continue that success for the flyers
