The Flyers hired Alain Vigneault as head coach in April 2019 after a disappointing 2018-19 campaign. Vigneault and General Manager Chuck Fletcher have signified a changing of the guard in Philadelphia, and they hope to build on the momentum gained in their first season together and become a Stanley Cup contender.
Vigneault’s style as a head coach has brought a sense of confidence to the organization and the fan base that did not exist under Dave Hakstol, who was fired just four months before Vigneault started with the Flyers.
