The Flyers got too complacent under Stevens and developed a cavalier attitude. They took advantage of him, didn't play with enough passion and helped him become unemployed. Shame on them. No one worked harder than Stevens. No one studied more film. No one cared more about this franchise. Again, shame on the players for taking those qualities for granted."
