"I don't think I want to touch that with a 10-foot poll," Flyers head coach Dave Hakstol told the media. "It's been an interesting campaign. I'll leave it at that."

Wayne Simmonds weighed in, sharing his take on Republican nominee Donald Trump. "The things that I've heard Mr. Trump say...I don't know. I think it's kind of out of this world. I don't think anyone like that should be president."

Hakstol made it clear that he will be casting a vote in this election. "That's everybody's duty if we want to have to say; if we either want to be positive or if we want to complain about something we should be part of the process."
