Flyers:
This is an excellent series put out by the NHL. Unlike the Penguins series it covers games from over a 30 year period of Flyers history. So one can see the Flyers clinching the cup in the mid 70's to a the modern day pre lockout Flyers. Plus one gets to the Soviet Union at the height of their hockey power as well.
Great set:
I dont know why but i've always liked the Flyers. Maybe they were hyping up Eric Lindros and I thought "Cool." but The Flyers have been my favorite team since I can remember. Ive stuck with the Flyers even though they had lost mostly every game last year, goaltenders who are great in regular season but cant cut it in the playoffs, and ever since Lindros was captain- every captain of the Flyers have got injuried, traded, or retired. Ive stuck with them but I cant say im a ultimate Flyers fan, I was not born... more info
Almost Perfect:
I'm withholding 5 stars from this otherwise outstanding compilation simply because of the obvious flip of the bird the Flyers gave to Lindros by *not* including at least one game from his Legion of Doom days with the franchise. The longstanding Flyers/Lindros battle notwithstanding, the fact remains, regardless of Flyers management's personal and professional differences with the Lindros family, Eric Lindros was an integral part of the Flyers' meteoric rise from the ashes when he was part of the team.... more info
Awesome:
I am a young Flyers fan, so getting to see some of the classic games in their entirety is great. It also gives a glimpse in how the game has evolved over the decades.
