A member of the Philadelphia Flyers for all twelve seasons of his NHL career, Bill Barber provided scoring punch for the Broad Street Bullies and the years beyond.  Barber is the all-time leading Goal Scorer (420) for the Flyers, and the six-time All Star was also a three-time postseason All-Star (one First Team and two Second Teams).  The Left Winger never had fewer than 20 Goals in a season, and he was a 40 Goal scorer four times and had a 50 Goal campaign in the 1975-76 Season.
