Phightins Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) The Flyers have fired coach John Stevens, the Daily News has learned. An announcement is expected later this evening with a press conference to follow at the Wachovia Center. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/frequentflyers/Flyers_fire_Stevens.html Saw it coming. Still sucks though, I liked him. Had to happen. Edited December 4, 2009 by Phightins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted December 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (edited) Peter Laviolette will be the new coach. I like it, I think he is precisely the kind of coach they need. Exact opposite of Stevens. Also, I felt like they needed to get new blood in here. Edited December 4, 2009 by Phightins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly3rs18 Posted December 5, 2009 Report Share Posted December 5, 2009 i like it alot. i think this team needs a guy more like laviolette but good luck to stevens. he has done so much to this team from his time with the phantoms till now. im sure someone else will hire him, but if not id love to see him as an assistant or something like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
