Philadelphia Flyers hire UFC fighter and bare-knuckle boxer as fight coaches: 'Michkov, they were saying, he needs to learn how to fight, he can't fight'
Briefly

The Philadelphia Flyers are enhancing their aggressive playstyle by hiring Johnny Garbarino and Andre Petroski as part-time fight coaches. They aim to teach players self-defense techniques and analyze previous team fights for improvement. Both coaches have solid fighting backgrounds, with Garbarino undefeated in BKFC and Petroski having a notable MMA career. This move reflects the organization's commitment to bring back the roughhouse spirit reminiscent of the 1970s Flyers while developing newer talents.
This Flyers season just got a whole lot better! Andre and I are officially your new Philadelphia Flyers Fight coaches! 🤌🏽😤
The team wanted them to show some of the Flyers' prospects how to better defend themselves. But the job comes with more responsibilities than that.
