One of the major complaints lodged by Flyers fans against former head coach Dave Hakstol was how he handled his goaltenders. From starting Steve Mason almost every single game down the stretch in 2015-16 as the team attempted to reach the playoffs, to starting Anthony Stolarz in nine consecutive games last season, Hakstol truly struggled with managing goalies. This was something we all were relieved to be rid of, especially when Carter Hart was called up to the NHL.
But now, with a new bench boss in Alain Vigneault, we have somewhat of an unknown relative to goalie usage.
