Established back in 1988, the Philadelphia Flyers Hall of Fame honors players, executives, etc. who have made an impact on the organization. Since Ed Snider’s passing in 2016, the team has not inducted any new names into the organization’s most prestigious club. That doesn’t mean they won’t and there are plenty of other names that could see their names up in the rafters at some point.

Speaking of up in the rafters, five members of the current Flyers Hall of Fame have their numbers retired by the team. There are also five inductees who are in the NHL Hall of Fame as well. That includes Fred Shero, Ed Snider, and Keith Allen who are listed as builders. Gene Hart was inducted into the HOF as a broadcaster.

Just as a friendly reminder, this is part two of the 12 players that have a case to be named into the Flyers Hall of Fame. And to also remind everyone of the criteria, this list is limited to retired players only, so players once again players such as Giroux, Voracek, and Couturier will not be making appearances on this list. One day all three of them will be more than worthy of the honor whenever they decide to hang up their skates and call it a career.

So that brings us to the remaining six players that shined for the organization on numerous occasions. This group would also feature a posthumous honor as one of these players, unfortunately, passed away.
