Classic 70s Style
The Philadelphia Flyers debuted a basic look with a simple color scheme–orange and black. Before the Flyers’ orange, the NHL basically only saw shades of blue and red in the original six (aside from Bruins yellow). This look proved to be a winner, being both distinctive and simple.
The Flyers wore this style essentially unchanged for their first 15 years. The only changes were tweaks to numbering and the league-mandated addition of name plates. By team’s 40th anniversary, they would come back to this look again.
