Why haven’t the Flyers been able to drive possession?

It truly was astounding, from a statistical perspective, what Alain Vigneault and his coaching staff were able to do with this Flyers roster.

Though they had some growing pains, the Flyers were winning games, and had COVID-19 not cut the season short, the team likely would’ve competed for the Metropolitan Division title. Not only were the Flyers winning games, but the process by which they were winning games was impressive, and there were many instances where they simply routed their opponents with little to no opposition. It was abundantly clear that the implementation of Vigneault’s system (or at least his newest version of it) and instruction from his coaches (if you take away the power-play) were positively impacting Flyers hockey.
