This is a good hire. Quenneville will have them playing good hockey and if they can ever get a goaltender they could be an eastern power. They have way too much talent to be this bad.

Philly needs to close the deal with Quenneville... that would be a fantastic hire.

Pilly has talent (except between the pipes), so he could do wonders for that franchise

Spokeperson for the Flyers has denied the report that Hakstol was fired:

Sounds like someone leaked some info they shouldn't have.

And there we go. Hakstol is not at Flyers practice. Looks like he was finally told.

This is almost as unprofessional as the Panthers’ treatment of Gallant.

I think it's worse. The whole world knew this guy was fired yesterday and they couldn't even be bothered to tell him today?

They should have told him as soon as the leak was out.

Maybe they promised Gritty that he could be the one to fire Hakstol.

Just brutal stuff by Holmgren.

He was a disaster the last time he ran the team and looks like he is carrying on with the same "formula" as always.

Really feel bad for many of the people there as the bully is back.

Lots of media are saying it is official now, but the team hasn't released anything yet.

I could understand this when Snyder was running the show, but how does Holmgren get back into that job after his first tenure? Bobby Clark pulling strings?

brutal. I can only assume they wanted to finalize things with Q and announce both decisions together, but things leaked to the press early.

I bet Quennville wanted to wait until after the Holidays...
Someone leaked it early and now it is awkward for everyone involved.

Holmgren is a dolt
