Flyperblog: Flyers to try cutting edge new A.I. as head coach

Disappointed with another slow start to a season, the Philadelphia Flyers have parted ways with head coach Alain Vigneault and are trying a new coach that is closer to the world of The Terminator than the Broad Street Bullies - an Artificial Intelligence.

Flyers chairman Dave Scott and general manager Chuck Fletcher presented the new coach at a press conference in the lobby of the Comcast Center earlier today. The A.I., also referred to as the Coaching Holographic Integrated Educational Framework, or C.H.I.E.F., is based on the combined brainwaves of every coach in Flyers’ history.
