Do The Flyers Need Shanahan

from Chuck Gormley of the Courier-Post,
Knuble, perhaps selfishly, thinks the Flyers are fine without Shanahan.
Through 17 games, Knuble is tied for third on the team with seven goals and leads the club with three power-play goals.
“I totally respect what Brendan can bring to a team and to a (locker) room,” Knuble said. “But I think we grew as a group last year. Would one guy be able to come in and change a lot of things? I don’t know. We don’t have one of those yeller-screamer personalities, but we have guys who step up and say the right things.”
At 36, Knuble is three years younger than Shanahan and believes he can be a productive player for the Flyers beyond this season. Knuble makes $2.8 million this season, a fair price for a player on pace for 34 goals.
