39. Iikka Sinisalo
From Finland, Iikka Sinisalo went undrafted though that was not that uncommon during the late 70’s.  The Flyers would sign him in 1981 and he was a full time player immediately.  Sinisalo would score back-to-back 70 Point seasons (73 & 76 in 1984/85 & 1985/86 respectively) and his scoring acumen certainly helped the Flyers go to two Stanley Cup Finals in 1985 & 1987.  He would score 409 Points over 526 Games as a Philadelphia Flyer.
