Although there was some alleged headbutting between some of the Flyers players and former head coach John Tortorella, there were a few other spats going on between some players and some coaches. Nothing as controversial as the situation between Cam York and Tortorella, but some instances where a player and coaching staff didn’t see eye to eye. Flyers interim head coach Brad Shaw revealed one of them on Friday after practice. Earlier in the year, Shaw removed Foerster from the penalty killing units and gave him a smaller role.

“You watch his growth on the penalty kill,” Shaw said.
