The Philadelphia Flyers 2024-2025 Season: Progressing Towards Lord Stanley's Cup

This is becoming more than a rumor.

Why Rick Tocchet Could Be Flyers' Next Head Coach

At 27-32-8, the Philadelphia Flyers are 27th in the NHL and once again one of the league’s worst teams.

This would be good withy me. Torts upstairs and Tocchet behind the bench.

Man we played tough last night 42 hits and numerous close calls to put a few in . A little puck luck and its a different game.

30th in PP percentage just isn't cutting it.

Why isn't Tipett playing right were Ovi plays on the PP on every PP shift.

He has the shot to do it. All he needs to do is stand there and shoot one timers.

I cant understand why we dont use him there.

1 point more than SEA with a game in hand for the 5th worst record.
4 points more than BUF with 3 games in hand for the 4th worst record.

Fedotov looked good last night, so we should start Ersson next........

I think it's pretty simple. We're stupid as fuck. None of our players get to play to their strengths. It's always just covering up for weaknesses.

When you have very few strengths to begin with you're always going to be covering for the weaknesses.

I don't think we are trying to win, just making it look competitive.

We haven't used Tippett in the OVI spot all season. Even when we were trying to win. I just cant understand why.

Well Idk who our PP coach is but I believe he should be relieved of such duties.

A team is made up of strengths added together. Covering up for weaknesses is a chicken shit style of any athletic endeavor.

I think Torts has lost this team on a number of levels. It is just a matter of time before they move Tortorella upstairs and bring in Tocchet behind the bench.

They are playing without any semblance of a top or second line center. No goalie. A mediocre defense at best and 5 or 6 minor league players. You could have Lord Stanley coach this team and get the same or worse results.

Rocky Thompson. The one guy in the organization that might be more inept than Lappy. I'll give him a little bit of a pass for the 0 for their last 29 or whatever run they're on now because they seriously lack talent, but as Las said, he's rarely used Tippett in the OV spot and it seems like a no brainer option. The PP has been DREADFUL since he's been running it. And they haven't always lacked talent like they do currently.

Watched a very small portion of last night's game and, as luck would have it, the part I caught was the 4 minute PP where they were outshot 2-0. Yeesh.

I really, truly, don't care who they go with next year as long as it's not Lappy. Tocchet, keep Torts, the guy wearing the greenman suit behind the net. Don't care. Just not Lappy.

Im gonna throw out that IMO Andrew Brunette may make a good replacemet for Torts.

Extra fun stat that I heard on the PHLY podcast this week. The Flyers PP, since Thompson took over in the 22-23 season, is ranked 33rd in the NHL. Utah and Arizona both have a higher percentage than the Flyers' cumulative 13.9%.

And more, because it's really ridiculous that he is still employed.

The Oilers have scored 104 more goals on the PP than the Flyers in that time span. 0.45 goals per game more. Would take the Flyers from 30th in goals per game to a respectable 13th over those nearly 3 seasons.

McDavid and Draisaitl alone have outscored the Flyers PP. By 13 goals. Point and Stamkos are the other pair (for most of the time) that has equaled the full Flyers PP output.

Michkov only needs 10 more PPG to tie for the team lead for the last 3 seasons.

And perhaps my favorite one, over those nearly 3 seasons there are 96 individual team seasons played. The 3 Flyers seasons are #88, #93, and #95.

Disgraceful and the PP is painful to watch
