Pete Laviolette is high on three teams all-time coaching victories list.

If the Flyers could shake their early-season slump enough to win at least 14 more times over their final 32 games — and he sticks around for all of them — Peter Laviolette could move into third place on the club's all-time coaching victory list. And that would be impressive, since he is already among the top three on that list for two other NHL clubs, including the New York Islanders, whom the Flyers face Monday afternoon.
Throw in the Carolina Hurricanes, for whom Laviolette has a Stanley Cup ring, and that is a pretty impressive top three threesome.

"Climbing" being a relative term in this case.— fentonhardy- At this rate he should pass hitchcock with about a week to go in the season and maybe pass quinn at this point next year. Get rid of this guy, now! this team sucks in so many ways that a new coach could certainly help with - PP, being ready to play, effort, fundamentals, I could go on. What is there to lose? couldn't be much worse.
Don't keep this guy long enough to pass Hitchcock let alone Quinn. Would be a disgrace to those two guys.— DG3 - zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
