Chuck Fletcher
By now, everyone knows of the viral videos of Kevin Hayes and his nicknames for teammates or mic’d up moments on the ice this season. During the NHL’s current suspension of play, Hayes is letting that personality shine off the ice, and fans have Chuck Fletcher to thank for it shining through.

The Flyers signed forward Wade Allison to an entry-level deal on Friday.
It remains a mystery at this point if and when the season will return. Who knows how much of a regular season will be left after this suspension? Who knows what the playoffs will look like? But whenever the league comes out of this stoppage and gets back to playing, let it be known that the Flyers window to compete is just opening up.
The Flyers have signed forward Tanner Laczynski to a two-year, entry-level deal, GM Chuck Fletcher announced on Monday.
It was only natural to feel disappointment that the NHL season was put on pause at a time when the Flyers were the hottest team in the league.

Flyers defenseman Phil Myers will be out for approximately four weeks with a fractured patella, GM Chuck Fletcher announced on Tuesday.
The Flyers win against the division-leading Capitals on a national stage with a very strong final 40 minutes certainly qualifies as a statement. That statement: this team is for real, and people are really starting to see it.
With the Flyers on a six-game winning streak and in second place in the heavyweight Metropolitan Division, it feels like night and day compared to just a year ago.
For the first time in a long time, the Flyers were in a position to be able to add at the trade deadline and Chuck Fletcher got active in trying to improve one area: experience.
