Mirror-Image Playoff Coaches: Brind'Amour vs Tocchet in East Round

In the Eastern Conference Second Round, former Flyers teammates Rod Brind'Amour and Rick Tocchet meet as head coaches—Brind'Amour guiding the Hurricanes and Tocchet the Flyers—in a playoff series for the first time. Both are hard-nosed leaders whose teams reflect their competitive, detail-focused styles: Brind'Amour has led Carolina to eight straight playoff appearances and won the Jack Adams Award in 2021, while Tocchet is in his first season coaching a young Flyers squad that just defeated the Penguins in the first round.
