The Flyers had one of their worst season's in franchise history with a 25-46-11 record finishing dead last in the Metropolitan Division and 29th overall. This finish has left fans demanding changes.
Tortorella has coached previously for the Tampa Bay Lightning, New York Rangers, Vancouver Canucks and Columbus Blue Jackets. Many players have shared that they hated playing for including many stars like Patrik Laine, Josh Anderson, Pierre Luc-Dubois and Max Domi.
