After a disastrous 8-12-4 start that has them sitting nine points outside of the last wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference, it was inevitable the Philadelphia Flyers would start making some changes.
The off-ice shifts started earlier this week, with general manager Chuck Fletcher firing head coach Alain Vigneault and assistant head coach Michel Therrien.
Fletcher spoke candidly about the firings, giving us a bit of a glimpse into what he's thinking as he guides the Flyers through this next phase.
"I was hoping we could get some people back and get our group together and find out what we have," Fletcher said, according to Charlie O'Connor of The Athletic.
