Seven games into the Philadelphia Flyers’ 2024-25 season and beyond the arrival of Matvei Michkov and the surprise rookie appearance of Jett Luchanko, this team still has earned a 1-5-1 record. It is a stark contrast from how they started last season, and even worse, they look like garbage in most of these losses.
Maybe the most frustrating part about the Flyers this season is the fact that head coach John Tortorella is changing up the lineup just so often. It feels (and it might be the reality) that this team has entered each of their seven games with a completely new combination of forward lines, and in the middle of the game it gets even more scrambled.
