( Bursting onto the big-league hockey scene in 1967-68, t...)
Bursting onto the big-league hockey scene in 1967-68, the Flyers became the first expansion team to win the Stanley Cup. Combining guts, goals and glamour in equal proportions, the Flyers captured the imagination of a city as well as the National Hockey League. Author Stan Fischler, who was there in 1967 when the Flyers began their hockey life provides the details in a brisk anecdote-filled volume that has the impact of a Lindros check. From A, as in Barry Ashbee to Z, as in Larry Zeidel, Fischler has a story about everyone who was anyone in the Orange and Black.
