    That was my point in saying if the new coach decides to go through an interview process with Shaw instead of going with preconceived choices from lets say their coaching tree I would be fine with that decision. I agree I wouldn’t want a coach to be forced to keep anyone from the old staff for the sake of it. The triumvirate is gone so now it is a duo so possible Briere and Jonesy have to agree on the next coach and his staff, also very possible it is 100% Brieres decision. Not sure why that is hard to believe as a possibility.

    Because Shaw is part of the same stink. time to move on. He is not anything special by any means. What has he really done during his Flyers tenure. I prefer the new coach to not be told he needs to keep Shaw or anyone else. Let him fail/succeed with his own choices.

    Does Briere even have the final say in who becomes the coach I wonder.

    Why would it be hard to believe an incoming coach wouldn’t want to keep Shaw as part of the staff? I would want Shaw to stay on if the new coach decides through their own process that he deserves to be a part of his staff. Could be wrong but don’t see a new coach decision in the near future unless a Cooper becomes available.

    Why would you want to keep Shaw? whoever they hire needs to be able to make his own choices as to who he wants to help him coach. Otherwise it will be doomed from the start

    I hope you’re right about Tocchett Bill. Love him as a player but has he really been successful? I want on innovative teaching coach. Don’t know who that is but that’s the type I’m interested in. Welcome back Bill

    I would really prefer the flyers go in a different direction than the consensus. Could we please hire Todd Nelson,Pat Ferschweiler, Mitch love or even just keep Brad Shaw. Tocchet has insanely low controlled zone entry numbers in both PHX and VAN. He is what fans accused torts of being. A dump and chase boring brand of hockey.i see the number of Clayton Keller skyrocket after tocchet leaves. the Peterson collapse coincidentally coincided with tocchet saying we want him to play differently. You even see vets struggle look at Oliver ekman-Larrson. He was terrible under tocchet. He goes to Florida and now Toronto and he’s a pretty solid D man. I watch way too much hockey and work til 1:30am so I see a lot of west coast games. Vancouver rode demko last year into a great year. That’s the extent of tocchets success in this league. I’d rather have anyone but him. “New era of orange” was what we been told. Michkov over Leonard gave me hope we were actually different. Tocchet brought in would be signal that. No they’re still the same

    I actually think Fersch would be a good choice and pair him with Shaw. Then find another really good assistant coach to do the power play.
    Also, think Nelson would be good but he may be a victim of his own success again if Hershey goes deep in AHL playoffs.
    Cooper if he becomes available but I don’t think that will happen.
    I don’t think Tocc nor Sullivan are good fits here.

    All of this is pretty much just my gut feeling talking here.

    Let’s Go Flyers.

    really hope it’s Ferschweiler but don’t sleep on Jon Cooper

    I actually think Ferschweiler is the No. 1 candidate.

    Would not surprise me at all for Tocchet to end up with the Pens.
