Former Flyers Coach Ken Hitchcock Gets Hall Call

The Hockey Hall of Fame announced its class for 2023. Amongst the deserving candidates was former Flyers head coach Ken Hitchcock. Hitchcock hasn’t coached since 2018-19, but during his tenure, he was one of the greatest hockey minds behind the bench. He currently ranks fourth all time with 849 wins; although Lindy Ruff (834) and Paul Maurice (817) could pass him this season.
