VOORHEES, N.J. — The stirring “Rocky” soundtrack cranked full blast inside the Flyers’ training complex seemed a strange dichotomy for a fallen franchise mired in the longest losing streak of its 54-year existence.READ MORE:So with that as the backdrop, Flyers chairman Dave Scott had something to say:“You deserve so much better than what we’re dealing with right now. This isn’t what anybody signed up for,” he said Wednesday.
Scott noted the core of Sean Couturier, Kevin Hayes, Joel Farabee and Ryan Ellis make a strong enough starting point for general manager Chuck Fletcher to build into a contender. Flyers captain Claude Giroux, the longest-tenured player, is still having a fantastic season at 34 and leads the team with 15 goals and 34 points.
