The Surprising Secret in Tocchet’s Track Record That Sealed the Flyers’ Decision
Through Tocchet’s tenure, Arizona picked up at least a point in five of six games against the Flyers (3-1-2). In those matchups, the Coyotes’ power play went 6 for 20 (30 percent) and their penalty kill scored three shorthanded goals.
“They were always a difficult team to play against with limited resources,” Flyers president of hockey operations Keith Jones said. “So I’m really excited to see what he can do here. I think that was one of the things that really was exciting to him. Thankfully, we have the infrastructure to attract a top coach. We have ownership that spends to the limit, to the maximum; I don’t even know if there’s a limit to make sure that things are great.
