Sharp has won three Stanley Cups, and had a successful career, though I am a little concerned with his lack of experience. I think bringing in John LeClair as a hockey ops guy, will help, but the same is true there with a lack of experience. Briere has been given a lot of credit by many in the NHL hockey world, for having a ton of knowledge and savvy as our new GM, though he has never been GM. We can't say that Jones, LeClair, Sharp, Briere or any of them CAN'T do their jobs well. I don't love the fact that they continue to bring in guys with ties to the Flyers, but at least they're new..so who knows? Whereas, we all knew that Fletcher was an abject failure, from season one, of his GM tenure here. I'm willing to give them a chance, and hey, at least the Flyers didn't hire Hal Gill, as their skating coach.
