Spending all but 11 of his 764 NHL Games with the Philadelphia Flyers, Chris Therien had a very good career, utilizing his imposing 6'5”, 235 lb frame to push opposing attackers around and stifle offensive rushes.  He was not a scorer, but he was usually on the first line of the defensive corps for Philly, providing a balance on the ice that he did brilliantly.

Like so many good hockey players in the Mid-60’s, Gary Dornhoefer struggled to find a permanent spot in the National Hockey League.  The Right Wing played 62 Games for the Boston Bruins from the 1963-64 to 1965-66 season, but he was never called up in the season before the 1967 Expansion.

After three years with Columbus, Jakub Voracek was traded in a transaction that proved to be very beneficial to Eastern Pennsylvania.  The product of the Czech Republic has had two 80 Points seasons as a Flyers the first of which (2014-15) would see him be a First Team All-NHL Right Wing, where he was second in Assists and fifth in Points.

Andre Dupont was traded midway through the 1972/73 Season from St. Louis, and he would prove to be a perfect fit for Philadelphia.  The Flyers were putting together the “Broad Street Bullies” and Dupont would be in the top seven in Penalty Minutes five times with Philadelphia.
