After five tumultuous years under the eye of Chuck Fletcher, the Flyers have finally waved the white flag. He has been fired, effective Friday, from his roles as President and General Manager. The reign that started in December of 2018, divided the fanbase at nearly every turn, and yielded just one playoff appearance in the 2020 bubble, has finally come to a close.
To replace the departed Fletcher, the Flyers have decided to bring back a familiar face, at least for the time being (shocker I know). Playoff hero Daniel Briere is back; named interim General Manager for the foreseeable future.
