The Philadelphia Flyers are undergoing changes in their Player Development department.

Mike O'Connell and John Riley have been let go, while Riley Armstrong, currently an Assistant Coach for the Lehigh Valley Phantoms, will take over as the Director of Player Development.

The team's Player Development department has faced criticism in recent years, and with the Flyers entering a rebuild, the next few years will be crucial for developing new players.

The Flyers expect more internal graduations after the 2023-24 season. Additionally, there may be other front office movements, including a potential title change for Alyn McCauley, who is expected to oversee the Phantoms as their GM.


There is uncertainty about the job security of Executive Vice President and AGM Barry Hanrahan, as some believe he could be in trouble.


The salary cap has been a concern for the Flyers, and ownership may push for a change in the club's capologist. Associate Coach Brad Shaw has attracted attention from other teams, but there is a possibility he will remain in Philadelphia.
