Flyers Captain Calls Out Teammates For Being ‘Soft’

Philadelphia Flyers captain Sean Couturier has had enough and criticized his team’s effort following a loss in Washington on Wednesday night. This season has been difficult from the very start for the Philadelphia Flyers. After reaching the playoffs last season – the first time for the franchise since 2019-2020 – the Flyers have opened this campaign with a 3-8-4 record. After losing by a 5-2 score at Washington, the frustration started to boil over. Team captain Sean Couturier, a 33-year-old veteran who has played 967 NHL regular-season games, had seen enough.
