Imagine how different that would be if he didn't have a boat anchor for a defensive partner most of the season? Maybe that can change this year... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OccamsRazor Posted August 19, 2017 Author Share Posted August 19, 2017 On this date in 1982... 1982: The Philadelphia Flyers acquire defenseman Mark Howe in a trade that sends forwards Ken Linseman and Greg Adams, plus two draft picks, to the Hartford Whalers. Howe becomes a three-time First-Team All-Star with the Flyers and helps them advance to the Stanley Cup Final in 1985 and 1987. After 10 seasons with the Flyers, he plays three more with the Detroit Red Wings before retiring in 1995. He joins his father, Gordie Howe, in the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2011. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were going to tell us Cooperalls were invented. Mark Howe becoming a Flyer is much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pilldoc Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 From the wonderful Bill Meltzer.... http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/Bill-Meltzer/Musings-and-Quick-Hits-2018-NHL-Awards-Draft-Musings-Therien-Podcast/45/93472 Today in Flyers History: On June 20, 1992, one of the most franchise-shaping and certainly the most historically debated trades in NHL history took shape at the NHL Draft. The Flyers and Quebec Nordiques struck a handshake agreement on a trade that sent the rights to Eric Lindros to Philadelphia. The Nordiques then turned around and traded Lindros for a second time; this time to the New York Rangers for what they believed was an even better deal. With the trade in heated dispute, the Flyers ended up making the 7th overall pick of the 1992 Draft. The pick was originally part of the Lindros trade. Philadelphia selected Ryan Sittler, the son of Hall of Fame center (and former Flyer) Darryl Sittler. The disputed trade went to arbitration, where arbitrator Larry Bertuzzi ultimately ruled the Flyers trade was enforceable. The reason: upon making the handshake agreement, the Nordiques provided to Philadelphia the personal contact information for the Lindros family; something they had steadfastly refused to do for any team until there was a finalized trade in place. Thus, although the paperwork for the trade with Philadelphia had not yet been put through NHL Central Registry, the NHL accepted the handshake deal as enforceable. The final compensation was adjusted slightly as Quebec said it would not have taken Sittler with the seventh pick. Either which way, the Nordiques were going to make out like bandits from the sheer volume of NHL roster players, top-notch prospects, first-round picks and cash coming their way. Lindros had a Hall of Fame career but no one player could make up for all that went the other way. The final trade from Philly: Mike Ricci, Peter Forsberg, Steve Duchesne, Kerry Huffman, Ron Hextall, Chris Simon, 1993 1st Rounder (Jocelyn Thibault), 1994 1st Rounder (Nolan Baumgartner) and $15 million (U.S.) in cash in exchange for Lindros' rights.

AJgoal Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 On this date in 1999, Dmitri Tertyshny was killed in a boating accident in British Columbia. Tertyshny looked to have a promising career in front of him when the 22-year old defenseman fell over the bow of the boat that he and two Phantoms were riding in and was hit by the propeller.

OccamsRazor Posted December 19, 2018 Author Share Posted December 19, 2018 Let's not forget to give Scott Gordon his accolades to kept it simple and help limit the shots on his 20 year old netminder to just 22. Impressive and he played Sanheim 21 minutes and didn't shorten his bench when they were only up by one goal in the waning minutes. Great first win!!!! Almost a complete game despite special teams still not clicking well. Zero PP goals and they gave up one when on the PK. I hope he can help there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
