Under Dave Hakstol’s three year tenure as head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers, the team has made the playoffs twice. Reaching the playoffs twice in your first three years of coaching is impressive to some degree, but the Flyers haven’t made it past the first round in either of those years.
A six game exit in 2016 against the Washington Capitals and another against the Pittsburgh Penguins last season, the Flyers have to perform better when it matters. Washington and Pittsburgh were the better team and higher ranked seed in both years, which is something that needs to change.
