The Flyers sign coach John Stevens to an
extension keeping him under contract for the next three
seasons. Flyers had also signed Ken Hitchcock to a three year contract back in 2006 only to fire him about a month later. But I don't see that happening this time, at least not this season. That's not to say Stevens won't be on the hot seat this season, he will be, at least with the fans.

That and the Ice Girls never return seem to return my calls. -ha ha-
At any rate the Flyers have announced tryouts on Sunday ...
