费城飞人队史耻辱开局：开季七场不胜，主场球迷高喊“炒掉主教练”
费城飞人队10月11日晚主场1比4不敌卡罗来纳飓风，开季战绩跌至0胜5负2加时负，成为队史首支前七场比赛一场未胜的球队，打破了1999-2000赛季和2008-09赛季保持的纪录。据美联社报道，比赛末段，留守看台的球迷齐声高喊“解雇托凯特！”，其余球迷则用嘘声把球队送回更衣室。
飓风队的安德烈·斯韦奇尼科夫和塞巴斯蒂安·阿霍各贡献一球一助攻。飞人新秀后卫奥利弗·邦克在个人赛季首秀中表现挣扎，与球队三个失球直接相关。颇具戏剧性的是，为飓风建功的肖恩·沃克和谢恩·戈斯蒂斯贝赫都是飞人旧将。
开季至今，飞人被对手以28比8的总比分压制，攻防两端均陷入低迷。揭幕战他们就曾在主场0比7惨败给匹兹堡企鹅。如今，飞人是东部联盟唯一一支未尝胜绩的球队。
“比赛某些时段我们会脱轨，我不知道是经验问题、压力问题，我不知道。”主教练里克·托凯特赛后坦言。飞人总经理上周末在波士顿曾表示“现在还不是因为一段低迷就恐慌的时候”，但留给这支球队的时间显然不多了。
当年那两支创造最差开局纪录的飞人队最终都打进了季后赛——但如今东部联盟的竞争远比当年激烈。飞人周二晚将主场迎战西雅图海怪，急需一场胜利止住颓势。
Flyers Suffer Franchise-Record Seventh Straight Loss to Open Season as Fans Chant "Fire Tocchet"
The Philadelphia Flyers fell 4-1 to the Carolina Hurricanes at home on Sunday night, October 11, dropping to 0-5-2 and becoming the first team in franchise history to go winless through its first seven games — breaking marks set by the 1999-00 and 2008-09 squads. According to the Associated Press, pockets of fans who stuck around in the waning moments chanted "Fire Tocchet! Fire Tocchet!" while the rest simply booed the team off the ice.
Carolina's Andrei Svechnikov and Sebastian Aho each had a goal and an assist. Flyers rookie defenseman Oliver Bonk had a rough outing in his season debut and was a factor in three Hurricanes goals. Adding insult, ex-Flyers Sean Walker and Shayne Gostisbehere both factored into Carolina's scoring.
The Flyers have been outscored 28-8 this season, struggling at both ends of the ice. They were crushed 7-0 by the Pittsburgh Penguins on opening night and are now the only winless team in the Eastern Conference.
"I think we go off the rails at certain points of the game," coach Rick Tocchet said afterward. "I don't know if it's experience, pressure, I don't know." The Flyers general manager told reporters in Boston over the weekend that "it's not the time to panic because of a bad stretch" — but time is running short.
Both of the previous record-setting Flyers teams rebounded to make the playoffs, though the Eastern Conference is far more competitive today. Philadelphia hosts the Seattle Kraken on Tuesday night, desperate for a win to stop the slide.
