I agree. Nothing changes with the lotto win until the on ice product gets better.

Maybe they're hoping Eakins does a Dubnyk.

Ironically Dubnyk was always trending upwards until Eakins got a hold of him.

Has any other media source beside Cox stated that the Flyers are interested? Cox is the same guy who pimped Eakins when he coached the Marlies and then Edmonton hired him. The only comment I have seen with reputable media sources about the Flyers coaching interests was Babcock, McLellan and possibly Hitchcock again, then the next night Cox comes up with this dream.

I searched on Google and every article quotes Damien Cox as the source, so no other "insider" has mentioned it before or since. Cox is actually worse than Healey.
