I do semi-understand the hiring...

like with Knoblauch they brought in an assistant who had a promising HC career at lower levels, potentially to groom as a future HC...

but tbh a better role for him would have probably been LHV HC. But guess only wanted an NHL role?

Now can you please post his "He works really Hard" stats, that is apparently all that matters in Tortsville.

At this point, I don’t want him coaching anything that I would like to witness at some point.

What are his job duties? Genuine question

What pisses me off is if this were the eagles or the phillies...a reporter would 100% bring that up in a question.

Flyers reporters are always so cowardly.

Any coach that took off his shirt and tried to fight a player shouldve been unhirable.

These people see it as a positive. Fire. Swagger. Physically and mentally tough. Passion. Whatever. Works hard, holds player’s accountable. And so on.

Getting an incredible record tbh. Going to be 300 games as an NHL PP coach at the end of this season... with at best a 14.5% record. When the worst team most years in this climate is around 14.5%.

This is really funny to revisit because a bunch of internet dorks with minimal knowledge were able to be completely right one Day 1 that this tumor was hired.

Once again, say it with me: this team will never ever be good when a bunch of amateur internet dorks are better at this than they are.

Yeah but he talked pretty that one time

Wait. Hold on. This is a real person???!!!?
I honestly thought this was a made up nickname you assholes just ran with for some scrub probably on the third pairing.
What the hell is his birth name if he’s currently going by “Rocky”??

5 points ahead of Buffalo for last place. Buffalo has 2 games in hand.
