Traded midway through the 1976/77 season from the Vancouver Canucks, Bob Dailey may have missed the Stanley Cup days, but he was still a contributor on some very good Flyers teams. The one-time tallest player in hockey (6’5”) would have two straight 30 Assist seasons, the first of which saw the blueliner put the puck in the net for a career high 21, which along with his 57 Points would set (since broken) records for a Flyers Defenseman. Dailey would be named an All-Star that year and later in 1981.
Brad McCrimmon may never have been an All-Star when he was with the Philadelphia Flyers, but he was certainly worthy of consideration. With the Flyers, he would finish in the top five three times in Plus/Minus and the top ten three times in Defensive Point Shares (including a first-place finish in the 1985/86 campaign), and he would have a career high 56 Points in 1985/86. His overall numbers with Philadelphia would see him score 187 Points with a Plus/Minus of 225.
