The 2015–16 Philadelphia Flyers season was the 49th season for the National Hockey League franchise that was established on June 5, 1967.[2] The Flyers opened the regular season on October 8, 2015 against the Tampa Bay Lightning.[3] This was the first season under new head coach Dave Hakstol. The Flyers finished fifth in the Metropolitan Division and seventh in the Eastern Conference, qualifying for the Stanley Cup Playoffs as the second Wild Card team in the Eastern Conference, where they would lose in the first round in six games to the Washington Capitals.
Off-season
After the Flyers failed to qualify for the playoffs for the second time in three seasons in 2014–15, head coach Craig Berube was fired.[4] On May 18, 2015, the Flyers hired Dave Hakstol to replace Berube. Hakstol had been the University of North Dakota's head coach for the past 11 seasons, during which he had a 289–143–43 record and led the school to the NCAA tournament in each season and advanced to the Frozen Four seven times.[5] The Flyers retained assistant coaches Ian Laperriere, Joe Mullen and Gord Murphy.[6] Kim Dillabaugh was named goaltending coach on July 3, 2015, replacing Jeff Reese.[7]
The Flyers signed Kontinental Hockey League defenseman Evgeny Medvedev to a one-year, $3 million contract on May 20.[8] June 27, the first day of the draft, was a busy one for the Flyers, as they selected defenseman Ivan Provorov with the seventh overall pick while also trading the 29th and 61st overall selection for the 24th in order to select forward Travis Konecny.[9] The next day, the Flyers made a trade to create some cap space, with the Arizona Coyotes receiving Nicklas Grossmann and acquiring the contract of Chris Pronger, while the Flyers received Sam Gagner and a conditional 2016 or 2017 draft pick.[10] The Flyers then traded Zac Rinaldo to the Boston Bruins in exchange for a 2017 third-round pick on June 29, while re-signing Chris VandeVelde to a two-year deal.[11][12] The next day, the Flyers re-signed Ryan White to a one-year deal.[13] On July 1, the Flyers signed free-agent goaltender Michal Neuvirth to a two-year, $3.25 million contract.[14]

<templatestyles src="Module:Hatnote/styles.css"></templatestyles>
Below are the Philadelphia Flyers' selections made at the 2015 NHL Entry Draft, held on June 26–27, 2015 at the BB&T Center in Sunrise, Florida. The Flyers original second and third-round picks were traded in two different trades.[72]
Notes
- ↑ Tied mark set by Mark Howe during the 1987–88 season and Eric Desjardins during the 1999–2000 season.
- ↑ The Flyers retained $500,000 of Grossmann's salary.[30]
- ↑ The draft pick the Flyers receive will be Arizona's choice of either a 4th-round pick in 2016 or their 3rd-round pick in 2017.[30] Arizona sent the Flyers San Jose's 4th-round pick on June 25, 2016, to complete the trade.[31] Arizona had previously traded their own 4th-round pick and acquired the pick from San Jose on June 20, 2016.[31]
- ↑ 4.0 4.1 The Flyers retained half of Lecavalier and Schenn's salaries.[34]
- ↑ Signed for the remainder of the regular season.
- ↑ 6.0 6.1 The Flyers acquired 2015 first and third-round picks along with Radko Gudas from the Tampa Bay Lightning for Braydon Coburn on March 2, 2015.[72]
- ↑ The San Jose Sharks' third-round pick will go the Philadelphia Flyers as the result of a trade on July 2, 2014 that sent Tye McGinn to San Jose in exchange for this pick.[73][72]
- ↑ The Los Angeles Kings's fourth-round pick will go to the Philadelphia Flyers as the result of a trade on June 27, 2015 that sent the Columbus Blue Jackets' fourth-round pick to Los Angeles for Los Angeles' sixth-round pick in 2016 and this pick.[29] The Flyers originally acquired Columbus' fourth-round pick in a trade which sent Scott Hartnell to Columbus for R. J. Umberger and the pick.[74][72]
