John Snowden The Frontrunner For Phantoms Head Coaching Job

It appears as if the Flyers could be promoting from within when it comes to their AHL head coaching vacancy. Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports (Twitter link) that the frontrunner is Phantoms assistant coach John Snowden. He has spent the last two years in that role after spending the previous two as an assistant with AHL Toronto. Snowden, if ultimately promoted, would take the place of Ian Laperriere who was reassigned in the organization back in the spring.
