Fantasy Impact: The Philadelphia Flyers have hired Dave Hakstol to coach the team 

 

The Flyers get: by all accounts an “intense” coach. Another Darryl Sutter or Mike Babcock when it comes to intensity. He’ll bring a disciplined approach to the team, which is exactly what it needs. The talent is there, but someone needs to wield the hammer.

On the other side of the coin, the players reknowned for their work ethic and fitness could be rewarded here. First name that pops into my head is Matt Read. Also Sean Couturier. 

 

But as I clearly noted – these are just speculative odds. Not in stone. Merely first thoughts that in some cases could nudge me towards (or away from) pulling the trigger in trade discussions.
