After years of preaching patience, Flyer GM Ron Hextall finally seemed to have his team ready to take the next step. He added 36 goal scorer James van Riemsdyk as a free agent, said that youngsters like Ivan Provorov and Shayne Gostisbehere were ready to step up and be leaders, and flat out stated that…
As you have probably heard already, the Philadelphia Flyers General Manager Ron Hextall was fired today. This is what the Broad Street Hockey slack chat looked like in the immediate aftermath. It all began with the tweet confirming the news. OFFICIAL: The Flyers organization has decided to relieve Ron Hextall of his duties as Executive…
