The Flyers fired head coach Peter Laviolette and assistant Kevin McCarthy.
- Arpon Basu: Craig Berube doesn’t have an interim tag: “This is his team for the forseeable future”
- Frank Seravalli: Laperriere will become an assistant coach and Kjell Samuelsson will become the director of player development. Derian Hatcher will be his assistant.
- Darren Dreger: “Fired 3 games in is harsh, but, not surprising based on tension Flyers management has been feeling. Now Holmgren has to be in crosshairs.”
- Mike Zeisberger: “If this coaching change doesn’t work, how long before #Flyers replace Holmgren with Ron Hextall?”
- Craig Custance: Custance puts the over/under on when Laviolette gets hired at November 22nd.
- Josh Rimer: There have now been 25 coaching changes in the past three seasons.
