It's not always a good day when you're trending on Twitter.
That's the case for Philadelphia Flyers coach Dave Hakstol, whose name took form in the aptly titled #FireHakstol hashtag following his team's latest loss.
Friday's overtime defeat to the New York Islanders marked seven straight losses for the Flyers, who have collected just four points over that time for an 0-3-4 showing.
Philadelphia entered the stretch with an 8-6-2 record, but has since fallen to 8-9-3 and is three points removed from a playoff position.
That's left Flyers faithful calling for a change behind the bench:
Does this guy know theyve lost 7 in a row? #FireHakstol #JustAnotherCoach

Only Hakstol could overthink 3v3 so much that he splits up Ghost, Giroux, and Voracek. This may be my #FireHakstol breaking point.

You have Ghost, Provorov & Sanheim.... yet Manning is on the ice in OT. #firehakstol

Hakstol joined the Flyers in 2015 following an 11-year run as head coach at the University of North Dakota. He owns an 88-69-30 record over part of three seasons in Philadelphia.
Should the Flyers opt to make a coaching change, it will come at a price, as Hakstol is signed through the 2019-20 season, as per CapFriendly.
Hakstol is the lone hire by general manager Ron Hextall, who inherited former bench boss Craig Berube upon his 2014 appointment.
