The Philadelphia Flyers expected to be a better team entering the 2025-26 season, but the majority of the NHL world didn't believe them. Thus far, every move has worked out in their favor. They hired Rick Tocchet to be their head coach, who has shown the ability to get the most out of any team he coaches.

Not to mention, signing Dan Vladar, who became a sensation for the Flyers and the solution to their goalie woes.
