Yes, we know that this is taking a while!
As many of you know, we at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the top 50 of each major North American sports team. That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists and consistently look to update them when necessary and based on necessity. As such, we are delighted to present our post-2023-24 revision of our top 50 Philadelphia Flyers.
As for all of our top 50 players in hockey, we look at the following:
1. Advanced Statistics.
2. Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Hockey League.
3. Playoff accomplishments.
4. Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles that are not reflected in a stat sheet.
Last year, the Flyers could not make the playoffs, but we still saw one new entrant and two elevations.
As always, we present our top five, which saw no changes:
1. Bobby Clarke
2. Bernie Parent
3. Bill Barber
4. Eric Lindros
5. Mark Howe
You can find the entire list here.
Team Captain Sean Couturier returned from injury and climbed to spot to #29.
Another Center, Travis Konecny, rose to #32 from #38.
The lone addition is Travis Sanheim, who will debut at #47.
We thank you for your continued support of our lists on Notinhalloffame.com.

A member of the Philadelphia Flyers for all twelve seasons of his NHL career, Bill Barber provided scoring punch for the Broad Street Bullies and the years beyond.
