The hire itself was questionable, given the fact that Hakstol had never manned an NHL bench. Hakstol has also warranted some questioning from the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/nhl-teams\/flyers\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Philadelphia<\/a> fan base, especially regarding some of his personnel choices. Last season saw <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/g\/gostish01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Shayne Gostisbehere<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/k\/konectr01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Travis Konecny<\/a><\/strong> spending stretches in the press box as healthy scratches.

The coach\u2019s decision to move star forward <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/g\/giroucl01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Claude Giroux<\/a><\/strong> to the left wing, and the subsequent promotion of <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/c\/coutuse01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sean Couturier<\/a><\/strong> to first line center, has paid off in spades, with both players having career years.<\/p>\n<p>You Would Think discussed the tenure of Dave Hakstol in depth on their debut episode, but the subject is touched upon again here, amidst breaking news (at time of recording), some Eagles talk, a call out, and Seven or Six Seconds.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.podbean.com\/media\/player\/ppdnt-8b266a?from=site&amp;skin=1&amp;share=1&amp;fonts=Helvetica&amp;auto=0&amp;download=0\" width=\"100%\" height=\"100\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Like us on Facebook @YWTpodcast<br \/>\nFollow You Would Think on Twitter @YWTpodcast<br \/>\nFollow Kyle Collington on Twitter @kcollington<br \/>\nFollow Mike Giletto on Twitter @mike_giletto<\/p>\n<p>Logo created by Ben Resnick (follow him on twitter @bennythejet55)<\/p>\n<p>Music courtesy of www.bensound.com<\/p>\n<p>You Would Think: The Philly Sports Podcast is available on Last Word on Hockey, SoundCloud, iTunes, and Google Play.<\/p>\n<p><em>You Would Think: The Philly Sports Podcast is brought to you by Last Word On Sports.
