On November 15, 1984, the Philadelphia Flyers held Bobby Clarke Night at the Spectrum to honor the legendary player’s contributions to the team. The Flyers retired Clarke’s #16 jersey, a fitting tribute to one of the franchise’s all-time greats. Clarke, who had retired after the 1983-84 season, was also recognized with the unveiling of the Bobby Clarke Trophy, awarded annually to the Flyers’ Most Valuable Player. A central figure in the Flyers' back-to-back Stanley Cup victories in 1974 and 1975

Who remembers this game? Flyers vs the Red Army was a famous international hockey game where CSKA Moscow walked off the ice in the first period in protest after the referees did not call a penalty on Flyers Ed Van Impe for his hit on Valeri Kharlamov. Eventually the Russians were persuaded to come back on the ice, and they lost to the Flyers 4-1. #philadelphia #flyers #bestofphilly #1970sstyle #philly #hockey #hockeygame #hockeyplayer #hockeyislife #hockeyfights #nhl #stanleycup #nhlplayoffs #st
