Scott Gordon's Job Next Season Still Up In The Air

from Sam Donnellon of the Philly Daily News,

Scott Gordon can be comfortable any place you put him.

As the coach of the Phantoms.

As the head coach of the Flyers.

In limbo.

That’s where the Flyers’ interim coach is currently, a point both he and general manager Chuck Fletcher made perfectly clear in back-to-back interviews Monday, as the team began the process of addressing and filling the team’s needs after yet another unfulfilling season. Fletcher and Gordon met for 10 minutes before meeting with the media Monday. Both said that Gordon coaching the Flyers going forward was not discussed.

“Look, Scott did a good job,” Fletcher said. “For me, I just think it’s prudent to take a little bit of time, decompress. … Do a little bit of thinking, do some due diligence. I think the right decision will be easier to come to in a little bit of time.”

Asked if it would be tough to go back to coaching the Phantoms, Gordon said: “No, not at all. That’s how I got here.”
