Philadelphia Flyers History: All Time Top 10 Assist Leaders

#10 Gary Dornhoefer – 316 Assists

#385 NHL All-time

Gary Dornhoefer comes in at #10 for the Philadelphia Flyers in assists. Picked in the expansion 1967 draft after the Boston Bruins decided they would not protect him, he would never play for another team. The bruiser of a right wing would go on to put up a good amount of goals too, as he is only 20 goals behind the tenth best goalscorer.

Dornhoefer would be forever remembered for when he scored the OT winner in the 1973 Stanley Cup playoffs against the Minnesota North Stars on a breakaway. The play is depicted in a statue, which once stood outside the Spectrum before being demolished.

After hockey, Dornhoefer worked with broadcasting legend Gene Hart covering the Flyers for 14 years between 1992 and 2006. He would then leave broadcasting to become one of the Flyers’ Ambassadors of Hockey.
