The Philadelphia Flyers have dismissed head coach Dave Hakstol, the club announced Monday.

Scott Gordon will serve as interim bench boss.

The Flyers have lost four games in a row, including a 5-1 defeat at the hands of the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday. Philadelphia currently holds the third-worst record in the NHL and sits in last place in the Metropolitan Division.

Hakstol served behind the Flyers' bench for three-plus seasons, compiling a 134-101-42 record. He led the team to the playoffs in two of the three previous campaigns but lost in the first round both times.

Philadelphia also fired general manager Ron Hextall in late November before eventually replacing him with former Wild GM Chuck Fletcher.
