Could This Championship-Winning Assistant Be the Game-Changer the Flyers Desperately Need?
It also doesn’t hurt that Halpern has watched one of the game’s best coaches up close in Jon Cooper.
Why Halpern would not be a fit
No experience as a head coach at any level is the obvious hole on Halpern’s résumé. How would that play in a pressure-packed spot like Philadelphia?
Alain Vigneault and John Tortorella, coaches with three Stanley Cup Final appearances and 134 playoff wins between the two of them, both didn’t last three full seasons here. So the Flyers would definitely be taking a risk if they went the unproven route for the next step in their rebuild.
