Philadelphia Flyers History
The Flyers, who joined the NHL in 1967 when the league expanded from the Original Six, became a dominant force in the 1970s, earning the nickname "The Broad Street Bullies" for their physical style of play. Starting with the 1972-1973 season, the Flyers amassed 18 consecutive Playoff appearances, propelled by the likes of three-time MVP Bobby Clarke, Reggie Leach, and left winger Bill Barber.
The team won back-to-back Stanley Cup Championships, defeating the Boston Bruins in six games in 1974 and the Buffalo Sabres in six games in 1975. A bid for a third consecutive Cup fell short when the Flyers were swept in the finals by the Montreal Canadiens. In the 13 seasons that followed, the Flyers led the league in points twice and reached the finals three more times. During the 1979-1980 season, they set a record by going 35 consecutive games without a loss.
Sparked by forwards Tim Kerr and Brian Propp, the Flyers returned to the finals in 1985 and 1987, but were denied the title each time by the Edmonton Oilers. Behind the "Legion of Doom" line of center Eric Lindros, left winger John LeClair, and right winger Mikael Renberg, the Flyers made their seventh Stanley Cup Finals appearance in team history.
The Flyers continued to be a force well into the next decade, never missing the Playoffs. They had one more shot at a Stanley Cup Championship in 2009-2010, coming back from down 3-0 in the conference semifinals to beat Boston en route to a finals berth against Chicago. The Blackhawks prevailed in six games. To date, the Flyers have made it to the Playoffs a total of 40 times.

Philadelphia Flyers at Wells Fargo Center
Since opening in 1996, Wells Fargo Center has become one of the busiest arenas in the world. Aside from serving as the home ice for the Philadelphia Flyers, Wells Fargo Center, also known just as "The Center," is also the home court for NBA's Philadelphia 76ers and home of the National Lacrosse League's Philadelphia Wings. The Wells Fargo Center first opened its doors on August 31, 1996, to host the World Cup of Hockey, and has since hosted a variety of events, including the 2001 NBA Finals, and the Stanley Cup Final in 1997 and 2010.
The Philadelphia Flyers’ 2023–24 regular season kicks off in October at Nationwide Arena, when the Flyers face off against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The Flyers will participate in the 2024 Navy Federal Credit Union NHL Stadium Series — hosted at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey — against the New Jersey Devils on February 17. They play their final game of the regular season at home against Metropolitan Division rivals the Washington Capitals. Here’s a list of key games to keep an eye on:
Tickets for the 2023–24 regular season can be purchased on Ticketmaster, the Official Ticket Marketplace of the Philadelphia Flyers.
For the 2023–24 season, the Philadelphia Flyers will sport new uniforms showcasing their distinctive burnt orange team color, while incorporating design elements from the team’s past. According to Philadelphia Flyers Governor Daniel J. Hilferty, the updated jersey ushers in a “New Era of Orange” and marks the team’s first uniform change since 2010.
The Flyers have made eight appearances in the Stanley Cup Final, and have won the Stanley Cup two times (in 1974 and 1975).

Game was great, seats were great! I love the experience.
Do NOT get in the Edge Fast lane because they only have one person at the counter and it is ridiculously SLOW Get in the regular lane It’s faster !!!!!! Wake up Shake Shack ! Spend a buck and put 2 workers in the Edge line!!!!!! It’s supposed to be a FAST lane !!!!!!
We wnt with our two boys - 8 and 15y - and had a blast. Getting in we had an issue with our youngest sons bag, which was too big. And there were no lockers in the venue, which was strange. But the staff were soo sweet and ended up solving everything. Really appreciate it! The game was great. Good seats. Great atmosphere. Only issue was the very unhealthy food selection. A salad or something like it would be nice 😎. But would highlt reccomend!
It was a great experience! Me and my kids first hockey game!
Has anyone noticed what Dave Hakstol & Martin Jones are doing in Seattle?? Why couldn't they do that here?
The Flyers looked over matched against the Penguins. The fans were into the game even though the Flyers fell behind and never got close. There is nothing like a home hockey playoff game in Philadelphia. Hopefully they can rebound and win game 4. Good arena,easy parking and reasonable pricing for the food.
The event was a good idea but a total waste of time. It took me longer to get there then the actual practic. If that is what a real practice consists of it answers a lot of questions why the team is playing as bad as they are. They had a long time between games there is no reason why they couldn't practic a little harder. Go thru more of what a practic is. Plus they could have made a lot of kids dreams by handing out sticks, pucks and autographs. Only a handful of players did. Like I said, it was a good idea but poorly done. Probably good for city since most families went out and ate after the skate around, um I mean, practice.
My husband and i were very excited for the event. we get there at about 12pm thinking we were early. to our disappointment we were late and it was over by the time we sat down. The tickets said 12:30 start and it was over at 1230. Mind you it was free but i feel bad for the people who were behind me walking into the arena. From what i heard it started at 11:30. meh
It was great, the players interacted with the fans as if it was a game. Even though they were practicing, they acknowledged the kids and gave away pucks and some of the players gave away their sticks. I did not go with any kids, but I definitely would take kids to the event in the future. I would recommend the event to everyone.
Aside from the fact it took us longer to drive to the event than the actual event lasted, it was an excellent experience!
Had fun at the practice the Flyers sure know how to be fan friendly. They had almost 5000 fans for a practice. The devils farm team would love to have that kind of crowd for their games. It just goes to show this is Flyers territory not Devils. We are to far away to go to Devil games 2 and a half hour drive. On a school night with kids no way. The Flyers games are much closer. Plus the Flyers are much more fan friendly. Go Flyers !
The practice was well done and very informative. I learned about the plays and the explanations by Steve Coates were amazing. The players giving their sticks and pucks to the kids was, I'm sure, their highlights of the day. I would have given this day a 5, but it was all too short, therefore, a 4.
A great time for Flyers' fans and Atlantic City! !
it was cool seeing them practice. they did an awesome job.
What practice? I was running a little late. When I got to the arena @1:00 every one was leaving. Did not see a thing. I did notice any listing on ticket print out about what times the doors would open.
I was highly disappointed with the Flyers Open Practice. The event was supposed to start at 12:30 and started early (about 12:20). It was over at 12:45. I would have expected some games, interaction, or something additional for the children to do. By the time I drove 50 minutes to get there and paid for parking, it was hardly worth my time. My children were very disappointed!
There was reserved seating for VIP's and the fans could not sit near the ice. Practice was for only 45 minutes. My travel time was longer than their practice.
Great fun to see an open practice. Loved the opening with Mara Justine. The Flyers should hire her to sing God Bless America for every game. She had the whole audience in tears. Beautiful. The practice was excellent, and i enjoyed having the announcer tell us what the players were doing throughout the practice. I do wish they would have had their names on their jerseys. That is my only criticism plus they ran out of hot dogs very fast and there was a contest associated with buying a hot dog. It was a fun and different event, and I am thankful for the opportunity to go especially since it was free!! Thank you!!!
It was very convenient that the tickets were free giving people a chance to see their favorite Flyers, however, 30 minutes of practice was a total joke. No one practices for that short period of a time. Time, travel, gas, tolls and paying for parking is absolutely ridiculous to only experience 30 minutes of "practice." If an event like this is to be scheduled again I think more things should be put into consideration. For starters, it being longer than 30 minutes. I have spoken with MANY others who were also dissatisfied with this event. Also, with only the short time the VIP sections should have been open to EVERYONE.
The whole event was 15 min and you needed to pay for parking and was just a trap to get you into atlantic city
